I finally got around to do some build-testing with a bunch of compilers and -fcall-saved* seem to get accepted. I haven't stared at their asm output though, yet: command: make CC=gcc-<version> HOSTCC=gcc-<version> -j4 compile stats (64bit only): not ok: - gcc-3.3 (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13): OOM KILLER goes off, gcc-3.3 leak maybe ok: - gcc-3.4 (GCC) 3.4.4 20050314 (prerelease) (Debian 3.4.3-13sarge1) - gcc-4.1 (GCC) 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-27) - gcc-4.3 (Debian 4.3.4-6) 4.3.4 - gcc (Debian 4.4.2-6) 4.4.2 - gcc (Debian 4.4.3-3) 4.4.3 - gcc-3.4.6 (GCC) 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r2 p1.6, ssp-3.4.6-1.0, pie-8.7.10) - gcc-4.1.2 (GCC) 4.1.2 (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.3) I'm attaching the versions of the patches I'm using. The first one by PeterZ touches a bunch of arches and Andrew hasn't picked it up yet so the question of getting the second (popcnt) patch to see wider testing in some tree is still unresolved. Suggestions, ideas? Thanks. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. -- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
