Greetings gentlemen. Trying to compile Linux-hexen 0.6.0 with
GCC 2.95.4, I got "Invalid `asm' statement" errors. The errors
occur in a routine that seems to multiply a 16.16 fixed point
number by a integer. Here's a fragment that triggers the error :
1 typedef int fixed_t;
2
3 int foo (void)
4 {
5 int f_w;
6 fixed_t m_w;
7 fixed_t scale_ftom;
8
9 m_w =
10 (
11 {
12 int __value, __fb = (scale_ftom);
13 __asm__("imul %%ebx; shrd $16,%%edx,%%eax"
14 : "=a" (__value)
15 : "a" (f_w<<16), "b" (__fb)
16 : "eax", "edx");
17 __value;
18 }
19 );
20 }
$ gcc badasm.c
badasm.c: In function `foo':
badasm.c:16: Invalid `asm' statement:
badasm.c:16: fixed or forbidden register 0 (ax) was spilled for class AREG.
This code used to compile before GCC was upgraded. I'd
appreciate any hints on how to fix it.
