Re: [OPCODE][AARCH64]Check mapping symbol while backward searching for IT block


Hi all,

Here is the patch to make the test to skip non-elf target.
The test case here is only applicable to elf target which has mapping symbol defined.

arm-none-eabi bintuils regression test checked Okay, Okay to commit?

Regards,
Renlin Li

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

After discussion with Richard, we agreed that, this patch is fixing a BUG
which gives undesired behavior provided a valid input.
The patch is Okay as it is. I will commit it then.

For an invalid input which leads to unexpected result, it's another issue. I
will try to sum up and create a public ticket .

Hi,
I've noticed that this patch makes:
./gas/testsuite/gas.sum:FAIL: 32-bit Thumb conditional instructions
backward search
on arm-wince-pe.

Can you have a look?

Hi all,

For the following simple assembly code.

          .text
          .thumb
          .syntax unified
          .thumb_func
f:
          nop.w
          .long 0xbf080000
          nop.w

When objdumped, the following code assembly will be generated.

     0:   f3af 8000       nop.w
     4:   bf080000        .word   0xbf080000
     8:   f3af 8000       nopeq.w

The instruction at pc=0x8 is treated as conditional executed instruction
within an IT block. This is because objdump misinterprets data (at
pc=0x4) as an IT instruction.
During the backward search for a proper IT instruction, mapping state
for the current instruction is not checked.


In this patch, I create a new function mapping_symbol_for_insn to search
the mapping state given an addr.
It's used in find_ifthen_state to further guard the check for an IT
instruction.

A new testcase is also added. Binutils checked without any new issues.
Is Okay to commit on trunk?

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure about this.  Use of .word in this sort of
case is most likely a mistake by the programmer rather than deliberate.
   Furthermore, if you're going to change this case, shouldn't you also
consider:

         itttt eq
         .word   xxxxxxxxx  // 32-bit opcode
         nop

?

R.

Kind regards,
Renlin Li
