[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v2 0/2] s390x: Avoid gcc 12 warnings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



gcc 12 warns if a memory operand to inline asm points to memory in the
first 4k bytes. However, in our case, these operands are fine, either
because we actually want to use that memory, or expect and handle the
resulting exception.

v1 -> v2
 * replace mechanism, don't use pragmas, instead use an extern symbol so
   gcc cannot conclude that the pointer is <4k

   This new extern symbol refers to the lowcore. As a result, code
   generation for lowcore accesses becomes worse.

   Alternatives:
    * Don't use extern symbol for lowcore, just for problematic pointers
    * Hide value from gcc via inline asm
    * Disable the warning globally
    * Use memory clobber instead of memory output
      Use address in register input instead of memory input
          (may require WRITE_ONCE)
    * Don't use gcc 12.0, with newer versions --param=min-pagesize=0 might
      avoid the problem
