similar to: Distinguish between ARM and Thumb

Hi I would like to use clang to cross compile the ARM binary. I hope the target binary contains both arm and thumb instruction sets. I use the flag -mhwdiv=arm,thumb. I compiled several binaries. However, I found that the thumb mode instructions are few. Even for very big program like gcc. The number of thumb mode instruction is less than 100. I get the ground truth from the mapping table.

Hi, We are trying to use clang as a drop-in replacement for the gcc come with Android NDK. I found that MC/ELF doesn't not handle Thumb functions properly, e.g., bit 0 of the function name in the .symtab is not set to 1, and some thumb instructions are not generated correctly, e.g., the addresses for tBL/tBLX are not calculated right. With that attached patch, we can compile and run some

Hi Koan, In general, this looks OK to me. Please split the patch into separate pieces, one for each issue you're addressing, though. From your description, it sounds like this should be 4 patches. That way we have a cleaner revision history in svn. -Jim On May 12, 2011, at 10:42 PM, Koan-Sin Tan wrote: > Hi, > > We are trying to use clang as a drop-in replacement for the gcc come

For FreeBSD we're on a path to having Clang + lld as our toolchain for all Tier-1

I noticed that LLD doesn’t preserve the symbol type for a defsym directive. For example: $ cat f.c void f() {} $ clang -c f.c $ ld.lld -shared --defsym=g=f f.o $ objdump -T a.out DYNAMIC SYMBOL TABLE: 00000000000012a0 g DF .text 0000000000000006 f 00000000000012a0 g D .text 0000000000000000 g f is marked as a function symbol, but g is not. I recognize this is hard to do in the general

There should be a line-table entry for the end of the function, which appears to be missing from the dump you provided. llvm-dwarfdump should report this address with 'end_sequence' in the Flags. Are you using a different dumper? I am not sure but my guess would be that inline data is not represented in the line table. The line table's primary purpose is to inform the debugger

Hi Dave Sorry, I meant the hardware you're using to compile LLVM - you mentioned it took you a long time to rebuild it so it would be hard for you to write/experiment on tests. ============================= Compiling LLVM doesn't take me too much time(less than 2 hours). The hardware is good enough and I am using interl E5 CPU. What I mean is that it took me a long time to analysis the

I'm not familiar with the target instruction set, but if "MOV PC, R0" is not a return instruction, I'm guessing that the sequence starting at A39C is a dispatch through a jump table. The jump table would be considered part of the instruction stream and included in the scope of the line table. This is not a case where you would see end_sequence; my mistake. The line table does

Hi I am using LLVM Pass combined with dwarf debug information to get all the function's start address. My steps are below: First, I write the function pass to get the start line of each function, which is finished. Then, based on the start line of every single function, I try to query the specific line from the dwarf's line binary table, which is generated with llvm-dwarfdump

Hi Dave I am not going to access any hardware. I am using clang to analysis the ARM binaries. The binary is 483.xalancbmk in CPU SPEC2006. When I use the optimization O0, no crash will occur. The crash occurs when I set optimization level as O1,O2,O3 and Os. If I have to recompile and rerun the tests. What version of llvm is suggested. It would be better if anyone could provide the patch on this

Hi I am using llvm-dwarfdump to dump the line table with -debug-line option. I compiled my program with -gdwarf-3. I first get the line number and source number for every instruction of the LLVM IR with metadata. Then I try to find the corresponding binary address from the dwarf debug info. However, I noticed that the dwarf table might not always return me the answer and some of the source line

Hi Actually, No particular reason. I just think this might be a solution, then I use think kind of method. Querying the symbol table would be a good choice, but I prefer to use LLVM and dwarf information. I am sorry that I am not familiar with debug_info. But thanks to your suggestions. I would like to try to solve it with debug_info. It seems work according to your comments By the way, I am

Hi all, When I use Clang, I can add -mno-thumb to the command line and Clang generates pure Arm code without any use of Thumb instructions. However, I am messing about with the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) which generates LLVM IR code directly and then calls `opt` and `llc` on that IR code. The generated IR code currently has: target datalayout =

Hi paulr Thanks for your reply. Though DWARF info give me the code address ranges, there might be inline data. If so, how to handle this case? As for the dwarf line table. Sometimes, the source line might be zero. Do you know why? If all instructions should be describe in the line table, I think analyzing Dwarf line table is enough to get all the instructions addresses. Do you agree? I would

Hi I come across the following exception when I use the llvm-dwarfdump -debug-info target_binary: llvm-dwarfdump: /home/linux/llvm-7/llvm/lib/MC/MCRegisterInfo.cpp:87: int llvm::MCRegisterInfo::getLLVMRegNum(unsigned int, bool) const: Assertion `I != M+Size && I->FromReg == RegNum && "Invalid RegNum"' failed.

Hello Tim, Rafael, Renato and llvmdev, I’m working to get llvm-objdump handle both arm and thumb disassembly from the same object file similarly to how darwin’s otool(1) works. And I’m looking for implementing direction. I spoke to Jim Grosbach about some ideas and he suggested I send out and email about some of the possibilities. Since none of the ones I could think of are pretty he thought

Jim, I didn’t understood why foo is not marked with type 'FUNC'. At least as per elf standard symbol foo should be marked as 'FUNC' STT_FUNC: The symbol is associated with a function or other executable code.

Hi, I wanted to know if it was possible to force ARM backend to compile a function in ARM while the rest is in Thumb mode. I tried the attributes which is used in GCC but it doesn't work.
