GCC wouldn't be able to implement this either (due to the separate
phases of compilation and assembly). We could allow it but it
makes not much sense and actively can confuse broken code into
segfaulting TCC. At least we can warn.
Warning exposes a problem in tcctest, and fixing that gives us
an opportunity to also test .pushsection/.popsection and .previous
directive support.
see testcases. A local 'extern int i' declaration needs to
refer to the global declaration, not to a local one it might
be shadowing. Doesn't seem to happen in the wild very often as
this was broken forever.
Also added a test yielding a failure with the previous definition,
i.e. when using: (va_end(ap));
The test also checks potentially incorrect va_start() definition.
which requires being able to emit an arbitrary number of NOP
instructions, which is also implemented here. For x86 we
could emit other sequences but these are the easiest.
the rules for constant expressions in static initializers are more
relaxed than for integer constant expressions. We need to accept
0.0/0.0 in static initializers (in non-static initializers the potential
exceptions need to be raised though, so no translation-time calculation
then).
tccgen.c:
- fix ldouble asm hack
- fix a VLA problem on Win64 (also x86_64-gen.c)
- patch_type(): make sure that no symbol ever changes
from global to static
tcc.c:
- tcc -vv: print libtcc1.a path also on win32
tccpe.c, tcctools.c:
- use unix LF mode to for .def output files (that is for
creating reproducible output trees)
Makefile:
- suppress some warnings when makeinfo is missing
- call 'which install' only on win32
tests/Makefile:
- change PATH only on WINNT systems (i.e. not if cross-compiling
on linux for win32)
- asm-c-connect.test: slim output and do diff
tccrun.c tccpe.c *-link.c:
- integrate former 'pe_relocate_rva()' into normal relocation
This also fixes linkage of the unwind data on WIN64 for -run
(reported by Janus Lynggaard Thorborg)

one some systems GCC defaults to PIC/PIE code which is incompatible
with a unannotated asm call to a function (getenv here). TCC doesn't
support these PIC annotations (yet), so play some pre-processor games.
fixes the problem in the testcase. A symbolic reference
from asm, which remains undefined at the end of processing is
always a global reference, not a static (STB_LOCAL) one.
This also affected the linux kernel.
win32/Makefile ("for cygwin") removed
- On cygwin, the normal ./configure && make can be used with either
cygwin's "GCC for Win32 Toolchain"
./configure --cross-prefix=i686-w64-mingw32-
or with an existing tcc:
./configure --cc=<old-tccdir>/tcc.exe
tcctest.c:
- exclude test_high_clobbers() on _WIN64 (does not work)
tests2/95_bitfield.c:
- use 'signed char' for ARM (where default 'char' is unsigned)
tests:
- remove -I "expr" diff option to allow tests with
busybox-diff.
libtcc.c, tcc.c:
- removed -iwithprefix option. It is supposed to be
combined with -iprefix which we don't have either.
tccgen.c:
- fix assignments and return of 'void', as in
void f() {
void *p, *q;
*p = *q:
return *p;
}
This appears to be allowed but should do nothing.
tcc.h, libtcc.c, tccpp.c:
- Revert "Introduce VIP sysinclude paths which are always searched first"
This reverts commit 1d5e386b0a.
The patch was giving tcc's system includes priority over -I which
is not how it should be.
tccelf.c:
- add DT_TEXTREL tag only if text relocations are actually
used (which is likely not the case on x86_64)
- prepare_dynamic_rel(): avoid relocation of unresolved
(weak) symbols
tccrun.c:
- for HAVE_SELINUX, use two mappings to the same (real) file.
(it was so once except the RX mapping wasn't used at all).
tccpe.c:
- fix relocation constant used for x86_64 (by Andrei E. Warentin)
- #ifndef _WIN32 do "chmod 755 ..." to get runnable exes on cygwin.
tccasm.c:
- keep forward asm labels static, otherwise they will endup
in dynsym eventually.
configure, Makefile:
- mingw32: respect ./configure options --bindir --docdir --libdir
- allow overriding tcc when building libtcc1.a and libtcc.def with
make XTCC=<tcc program to use>
- use $(wildcard ...) for install to allow installing just
a cross compiler for example
make cross-arm
make install
- use name <target>-libtcc1.a
build-tcc.bat:
- add options: -clean, -b bindir
The assembler uses the ->sym_scope member to walk up the symbols
until finding a non-automatic symbol. Since reordering the
members of Sym the sym_scope member contains a scope even for local
statics. Formerly the use of asm_label for statics was implicitely
clearing sym_scope, now we have to do that explicitely.
Add a testcase for that, and one I encountered when moving the
clearing of sym_scope too deep into the call chain (into put_extern_sym).
Like returned local variables also labels local to a statement expression
can be returned, and so their symbols must not be immediately freed
(though they need to be removed from the symbol table).
Use 2 level strategy to access packed bitfields cleanly:
1) Allow to override the original declaration type with
an auxilary "access type". This solves cases such as
struct {
...
unsigned f1:1;
};
by using VT_BYTE to access f1.
2) Allow byte-wise split accesses using two new functions
load/store_packed_bf. This solves any cases, also ones
such as
struct __attribute((packed)) _s {
unsigned x : 12;
unsigned char y : 7;
unsigned z : 28;
unsigned a: 3;
unsigned b: 3;
unsigned c: 3;
};
where for field 'z':
- VT_INT access from offset 2 would be unaligned
- VT_LLONG from offset 0 would go past the total
struct size (7)
and for field 'a' because it is in two bytes and
aligned access with VT_SHORT/INT is not possible.
Also, static bitfield initializers are stored byte-wise always.
Also, cleanup the struct_layout function a bit.
* tccgen: re-allow long double constants for x87 cross
sizeof (long double) may be 12 or 16 depending on host platform
(i386/x86_64 on unix/windows).
Except that it's 8 if the host is on windows and not gcc
was used to compile tcc.
* win64: fix builtin_va_start after VT_REF removal
See also a8b83ce43a
* tcctest.c: remove outdated limitation for ll-bitfield test
It always worked, there is no reason why it should not work
in future.
* libtcc1.c: exclude long double conversion on ARM
* Makefile: remove CFLAGS from link recipes
* lib/Makefile: use target DEFINES as passed from main Makefile
* lib/armflush.c lib/va_list.c: factor out from libtcc1.c
* arm-gen.c: disable "depreciated" warnings for now
'extern int i = 42;' at file scope (but not in function scope!) is
allowed and is a proper definition, even though questionable style;
some compilers warn about this.
This invalid function definition:
int f()[] {}
was tried to be handled but there was no testcase if it actually worked.
This fixes it and adds a TCC only testcase.
factor code a bit for transforming tokens into SValues. This revealed
a bug in TOK_GET (see testcase), which happened to be harmless before.
So fix that as well.
Our code generation assumes that it can load/store with the
bit-fields base type, so bit_pos/bit_size must be in range for this.
We could change the fields type or adjust offset/bit_pos; we do the
latter.
Checked the lcc testsuite for bitfield stuff (in cq.c and fields.c),
fixed one more error in initializing unnamed members (which have
to be skipped), removed the TODO.
usage:
tcc -ar [rcsv] lib files...
tcc -impdef lib.dll [-v] [-o lib.def]
also:
- support more files with -c: tcc -c f1.c f2.c ...
- fix a bug which caused tcc f1.c f2.S to produce no asm
- allow tcc -ar @listfile too
- change prototype: _void_ tcc_set_options(...)
- apply -Wl,-whole-archive when a librariy is given
as libxxx.a also (not just for -lxxx)
tests/Makefile: fix out-of-tree build issues
Also:
- win64: align(16) MEM_DEBUG user memory
on win64 the struct jmp_buf in the TCCState structure which we
allocate by tcc_malloc needs alignment 16 because the msvcrt
setjmp uses MMX instructions.
- libtcc_test.c: win32/64 need __attribute__((dllimport)) for
extern data objects
- tcctest.c: exclude stuff that gcc does not compile
except for relocation_test() the other issues are mostly ASM
related. We should probably check GCC versions but I have
no idea which mingw/gcc versions support what and which don't.
- lib/Makefile: use tcc to compile libtcc1.a (except on arm
which needs arm-asm
Some more subtle issues with code suppression:
- outputting asms but not their operand setup is broken
- but global asms must always be output
- statement expressions are transparent to code suppression
- vtop can't be transformed from VT_CMP/VT_JMP when nocode_wanted
Also remove .exe files from tests2 if they don't fail.
Also ...
tcctest.c:
- exclude stuff that gcc doesn't compile on windows.
libtcc.c/tccpp.c:
- use unsigned for memory sizes to avoid printf format warnings
- use "file:line: message" to make IDE error parsers happy.
tccgen.c: fix typo
on 32bit long long support was sometimes broken. This fixes
code-gen for long long values in switches, disables a x86-64 specific
testcase and avoid an undefined shift amount. It comments out
a bitfield test involving long long bitfields > 32 bit; with GCC layout
they can straddle multiple words and code generation isn't prepared
for this.
when an alignment is explicitely given on the member itself,
or on its types attributes then respect it always. Was only
allowed to increase before, but GCC is allowing it.
The linux kernel has some structures that are page aligned,
i.e. 4096. Instead of enlarging the bit fields to specify this,
use the fact that alignment is always power of two, and store only
the log2 minus 1 of it. The 5 bits are enough to specify an alignment
of 1 << 30.
Such struct decl:
struct S { char a; int i;} __attribute__((packed));
should be accepted and cause S to be five bytes long (i.e.
the packed attribute should matter). So we can't layout
the members during parsing already. Split off the offset
and alignment calculation for this.
See testcases. We now support 64bit case constants. At the same time
also 64bit enum constants on L64 platforms (otherwise the Sym struct
isn't large enough for now). The testcase also checks for various
cases where sign/zero extension was confused.
In certain very specific situations (involving switches
with asms inside dead statement expressions) we could generate
invalid code (clobbering the buffer so much that we generated
invalid instructions). Don't emit the decision table if the
switch itself is dead.
The callee saved registers (among them r12-r15) really need
saving/restoring if mentioned in asm clobbers, even if TCC
itself doesn't use them. E.g. the linux kernel relies on that
in its switch_to() implementation.
Similar to GCC a local asm register variable enforces the use of a
specified register in asm operands (and doesn't otherwise
matter). Works only if the variable is directly mentioned as
operand. For that we now generally store a backpointer from
an SValue to a Sym when the SValue was the result of unary()
parsing a symbol identifier.
If the destination is an indirect pointer access (which ends up
as VT_LLOCAL) the intermediate pointer must be loaded as VT_PTR,
not as whatever the pointed to type is.
If a condition is always zero/non-zero we can omit the
then or else code. This is complicated a bit by having to
deal with labels that might make such code reachable without
us yet knowing during parsing.
This happens when e.g. string constants (or other static data)
are passed as operands to inline asm as immediates. The produced
symbol ref wouldn't be found. So tighten the connection between
C and asm-local symbol table even more.
