Yes, I see the load is 8-byte aligned in the bit code.
My question was, assuming that arguments requiring double word alignment
have to be passed in even/odd registers, how does the backend know that %0
has to be passed in register r2 and r3?
*tail call arm_aapcscc void (i32, ...)* @foo0(i32 1, [2 x i32] %0)
nounwindt
*
It doesn't seem that ARM backend can figure out that "[2 x i32]
%0" was
originally a structure consisting of a single double field. When I run llc,
it looks like "%0" is being passed in register r1 and r2.
*$ llc vararg1-main.ll -o -
ldr r0, .LCPI0_0
ldm r0, {r1, r2}
.LCPI0_0:
.long .Lmain.s0
...
.Lmain.s0:
.long 0 @ double 2.000000e+00
*
I am running tests to see if llc targeting mips can correctly compile a
bitcode file generated by clang-arm.
One of the tests is failing, and I was wondering whether this could be a
bug in arm-specific part of clang.
The attached files are the tests (reduced test case) I used.
