This allows it to be * optimised out of the generated binary. * * Unfortunately at least GCC 4.6.3 through 7.3.0 inclusive suffer from a bug * that can lead to instructions from beyond an unreachable statement being * incorrectly reordered into earlier delay slots if the unreachable statement * is the only content of a case in a switch statement. This can lead to * seemingly random behaviour, such as invalid memory accesses from incorrectly * reordered loads or stores. See this potential GCC fix for details: * * https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-09/msg00360.html * * It is unclear whether GCC 8 onwards suffer from the same issue - nothing * relevant is mentioned in GCC 8 release notes and nothing obviously relevant * stands out in GCC commit logs, but these newer GCC versions generate very * different code for the testcase which doesn't exhibit the bug. * * GCC also handles stack allocation suboptimally when calling noreturn * functions or calling __builtin_unreachable(): * * https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82365 * * We work around both of these issues by placing a volatile asm statement, * which GCC is prevented from reordering past, prior to __builtin_unreachable * calls. * * The .insn statement is required to ensure that any branches to the * statement, which sadly must be kept due to the asm statement, are known to * be branches to code and satisfy linker requirements for microMIPS kernels. */ #undef barrier_before_unreachable #define barrier_before_unreachable() asm volatile(".insn") #if !defined([31mCONFIG_CC_IS_GCC[0m) || \ (__GNUC__ > 4) || (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 9) # define GCC_OFF_SMALL_ASM() "ZC" #elif defined([31mCONFIG_CPU_MICROMIPS[0m) # error "microMIPS compilation unsupported with GCC older than 4.9" #else # define GCC_OFF_SMALL_ASM() "R" #endif #ifdef [31mCONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6[0m #define MIPS_ISA_LEVEL "mips64r6" #define MIPS_ISA_ARCH_LEVEL MIPS_ISA_LEVEL #define MIPS_ISA_LEVEL_RAW mips64r6 #define MIPS_ISA_ARCH_LEVEL_RAW MIPS_ISA_LEVEL_RAW #else /* MIPS64 is a superset of MIPS32 */ #define MIPS_ISA_LEVEL "mips64r2" #define MIPS_ISA_ARCH_LEVEL "arch=r4000" #define MIPS_ISA_LEVEL_RAW mips64r2 #define MIPS_ISA_ARCH_LEVEL_RAW MIPS_ISA_LEVEL_RAW #endif /* CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6 */ #endif /* _ASM_COMPILER_H */ |
