In zeromq/3.2/src/atomic_ptr.hpp, we have the following code:
#elif defined ZMQ_ATOMIC_PTR_ARM
T *old;
unsigned int flag;
__asm__ volatile (
" dmb sy\n\t"
"1: ldrex %1, [%3]\n\t"
" mov %0, #0\n\t"
" teq %1, %4\n\t"
+ " it eq\n\t"
" strexeq %0, %5, [%3]\n\t"
" teq %0, #0\n\t"
" bne 1b\n\t"
" dmb sy\n\t"
: "=&r"(flag), "=&r"(old), "+Qo"(ptr)
: "r"(&ptr), "r"(cmp_), "r"(val_)
: "cc");
return old;
I've added the line starting with "+" above.
When compiled for a Thumb2 target such as an iPhone, the original code
gives the following error:
In file included from .../src/mailbox.cpp:22:
In file included from .../src/mailbox.hpp:32:
In file included from .../src/ypipe.hpp:25:
.../src/atomic_ptr.hpp:143:41: error:
predicated instructions must be in IT block
" teq %1, %4\n\t"
^
<inline asm>:5:9: note: instantiated into assembly here
strexeq r9, r2, [r3]
^
The reason is that on Thumb2, the conditional instruction "strexeq"
cannot be used without a preceding "it" (if-then) instruction. The
"it" mnemonic doesn't generate any code on non-Thumb targets, so it is
safe to include in both cases. The fix is simply to add the line
starting with "+" above. (Remove the "+" first, of course.)
I would have posted this on a bug tracker, but there doesn't seem to
be any "Issues" link on the Github page and the "official bug tracker"
at zeromq.jira.com is dead, so I figure this mailing list is the best
chance we have of getting the issue fixed in a timely manner.
Thanks,
