[llvm-dev] PowerPC64 Diassembler
Hi, I was taking a look at the disassembler on PowerPC64. Usually, when we have a branch instruction, it shows the address of the target. For example (function "ret1" in X86_64): GDB: 0x000000000040051d <+45>: callq 0x4004e0 <ret1> LLDB: 0x40051d <+45>: callq 0x4004e0 ; ret1 However, LLDB doesn't do that in PPC64: GDB: 0x0000000010000658 <+72>: bl 0x10000670 <ret1> LLDB: 0x10000658 <+72>: bl .+67108760 (Note that the comment "; ret1" is missing). I noticed that LLDB on PPC64 is the only one that prints ".+" and the offset (which is unsigned in this case, that's why it shows that strange number). Why is it like this? Is there any special reason? I was thinking about changing it and make it look more like the other ones, but first I want to know if that's ok or if it should stay the way it is for some reason.
