Hi there, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61330. There will be an ICE in gcc trunk for targets support section anchor optimization when compiling this case(like arm and mips). This looks like an old bug which is exposed by recent patch.
In make_decl_rtl, when you declare register type incorrectly like "register
int *a asm("unknown register");", the compiler will raise an error messge
but doesn't return directly. It will continue to run into the rtx generation
code for general variable declaration and generate a wrong
rtx:(symbol_ref:SI...). So I just remove the else condition which used to be
the rtx generation part for correctly declared register type, and let all
the register type declaration(no matter it declared correct or not) go
through it and generate the same type of rtx:(reg:SI...).
gcc/ChangeLog:
2014-07-29 Tony Wang tony.w...@arm.com
* gcc/varasm.c (make_decl_rtl): Remove the else condition
for properly declared static register variables.
