inline asm in gcc 2.95.3

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

 



hi,
iam using some c++ code in kernel module and am using
gcc 2.95.3. My code compiles under gcc 2.91.66 but
complaines in the newer version. the code that poses
the problem is 

#define __flush_tlb()
do {
unsigned int tmpreg; \
__asm__ __volatile__( \
"movl %%cr3, %0;  # flush TLB \n" \
"movl %0, %%cr3;              \n" \
: "=r" (tmpreg) \
:: "memory"); \
} while (0) 


The : and :: used in the inline assembly pose the
problem. it also happens in couple of other places.
how can i solve this problem. iam not versed in inline
assembly and this problem frustates me. also can some
one point me where to find some docs about inline
assembly for gcc?

Cheers,
Mohan S
