[Bug ld/13352] New: microblaze linker relocation bug: R_MICROBLAZE_64_NONE
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13352 Bug #: 13352 Summary: microblaze linker relocation bug: R_MICROBLAZE_64_NONE Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassig...@sourceware.org ReportedBy: bfke...@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Created attachment 6037 --> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=6037 Tarball contains two C source files. Please compile and link as described above. In certain cases the mb-gcc linker doesn't update the IMM operand when address mode optimization (a.k.a. relaxation, ld -relax) shrinks a R_MICROBLAZE_64_NONE relocation. I believe the assembler generates this relocation type for a BRLID to a function declared static in the same module. If the relocation target in the BRLID instruction is further than 64kbytes away _before_ relaxation (i.e. on output from the assembler) but changes to less than 64Kbytes away _after_ relaxation, the linker updates the BRLID immediate operand but fails to update the IMM operand. Note this only happens when an input .o is fairly large (at least 64KB of .text). One workaround is to invoke ld directly and omit the -relax option. I'm using Xilinx EDK 12.4. "mb-gcc -v" says: gcc version 4.1.2 20070214 (Xilinx 12.3 Build EDK_MS3.66 14 Jul 2010) To reproduce the problem: 1) unpack the two source files from the attached tarball 2) mb-gcc -v -mcpu=v8.00.b -mno-xl-soft-mul -O -o relax relax.c relax2.c 3) mb-objdump -d relax | grep brlid | grep -v '//' The last command will print the line of the badly-linked subroutine call. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13352 --- Comment #1 from Barry Keane 2011-10-27 17:40:17 UTC --- I should clarify a little more. The problematic IMM+BRLID instruction pair lies at text addresses 0x100A8 and 0x100AC in the linker output. 100a8: b000fffeimm -2 100ac: b9f4015cbrlid r15, 348 The target subroutine address (atoi) lies at 0x0208. The BRLID interprets its address as a PC-relative (not absolute) address, hence the linker relocation result should be the difference: atoi address: 0x208: BRLID address: 0x100AC difference: 0x015C Instead the linker produces 0xFFFE015C, which is a bug. If you look at the .o assembler output you'll see that that the assembler produces a correct PC-relative address in which the IMM operand is 0xFFFE. 10270: b000fffeimm -2 10274: b9f4fd8cbrlid r15, -628 // 0 At this point (before relaxation) the target is more than 64KB away from the BRLID instruction: 0xFFFEFD8C (66164 decimal) bytes. After relaxation the target is less than 64KB away: 0x015C (65188 decimal) bytes. It looks to me like the linker's relaxation optimization updated the BRLID operand but neglected to update the IMM operand. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
