Linaro GCC vs Valgrind

2016-06-09 Thread William Mills
Hello, We have been using Linaro GCC 5.x[1] and valgrind. When the optimizer is turned on valgrind complains about writes beyond the current stack pointer. With the optimizer off, the problem report goes away. I have my own conclusion about what is going on but I won't bias you with it. Here a

We are using the Linaro prebuilt binary 2013.03 toolchain. We have a program that does a memcpy of 6 bytes and the source and destination pointers are both 6 byte arrays (through multiple levels of struct & union etc). At -O2 we get the memcpy inlined. The code area in question is: 22840: f8b

All, I need to supply a Linaro toolchain "aligned" (same source code) bare-metal compiler to a group doing benchmarking on A15. First off my assumption is that we will write our own boot and semi hosting code. (semi-hosting for TI emulators/simulators is different than ARM RDI semi-hosting.
