Subject: Linker --fix-v4bx problem
Date: Sun, 09 Feb 2020 16:34:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6773ED2626D769428AEACF6C2B03437185F2671E@SERVER.partis.local> (raw)
Hello
I am using GNU ld version 2.31.1 to target ARMv3 (ARM610/710) processors. Primarily, GCC's libgcc contains "BX LR" instructions which we want changed to "MOV PC,LR" so to be compatible with older processors, but after running the linker with the "--fix-vxb4" directive the BX instructions are still there (we use objdump to disassemble the resultant ELF file to check).
Are we missing something really obvious or is the "--fix-v4bx" directive broken in some way?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Gary Partis
