[Bug other/52646] New: Clang LLVM's __attribute__((naked)) for GCC when compiling for x86
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52646 Bug #: 52646 Summary: Clang LLVM's __attribute__((naked)) for GCC when compiling for x86 Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: other AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: th020...@gmail.com It would be helpful to system developers if GCC had something similar to Clang LLVM's __attribute__((naked)) for x86 targets. There are cases, such as when interfacing with assembly or when handling an interrupt, when the code that precedes and follows a normal function causes problems. GCC already has __attribute__((interrupt)) for multiple targets, but doesn't implement it for x86. Personally, if the feature were to be implemented, I believe naked is more explicit. I'd be glad to do this myself, but I'm not acquainted with GCC at all. What files should I look in to get started?

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52646 --- Comment #2 from Tyler Hardin 2012-03-21 00:44:39 UTC --- While I admit my knowledge of interrupts on ARM, AVR, CR16, Epiphany, M32C, M32R/D, m68k, MeP, MIPS, RL78, RX and Xstormy16 is limited; I don't see why, if GCC supports interrupts on all of them, then it shouldn't have support for others. Is there something special about them?

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52646 --- Comment #4 from Tyler Hardin 2012-03-21 01:07:20 UTC --- If I care enough to implement them for x86, do you believe it would be included in GCC? If not, I won't waste my time with it (while it's worth my time to implement it, it's not worth my time to maintain a fork that has my patch). If you do, then I would really appreciate a hint about where to start. I realize it may be obscure, so I understand if no one has a clue.
[Bug inline-asm/51863] New: invlpg with -masm=intel generates memory operand size error in assembly stage
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51863 Bug #: 51863 Summary: invlpg with -masm=intel generates memory operand size error in assembly stage Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.6.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: inline-asm AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: th020...@gmail.com The expected behavior would be to generate code analogous to that of the default -masm=att, which uses no size prefixes to address the memory operand of invlpg. The actual behavior is that -masm=intel causes GCC to emit code that uses a size prefix (like dword, byte, etc.) which causes an error in GAS when the code is assembled. The command that generates the error is: gcc -masm=intel main.c The same command without -masm=intel works. Output of "gcc -v" Using built-in specs.

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51863 Tyler Hardin changed: What|Removed |Added Status|RESOLVED|UNCONFIRMED Resolution|INVALID | --- Comment #3 from Tyler Hardin 2012-01-15 08:49:26 UTC --- (In reply to comment #2) > I think you should use: > asm("invlpg %0" :: "r"(pointer_to_page) : "memory"); > Instead. invlpg only accepts memory operands. But, if I adapt your idea just a little, it works: asm("invlpg [%0]" :: "r"(pointer_to_page) : "memory"); It would be nice if it would work without having to trick the compiler (telling it I'm using a register but actually referencing memory), but it works now, that's all I care about. Thanks. > What GCC is doing is correct in that it outputs the byte/word/dword > correctly for -masm=intel. But why for -masm=intel and not for -masm=att (the default)?
