Hi,

As of gas 980114, I and other people have verified that the patch
below is needed for Linux/Alpha to pass "make check" for egcs with
libg++ as well as build a working glibc 2. I intend to include it
in the next binutils for Linux.

Thanks.

My bug report has the asm code and 2 .o files assembled by the
working and non-working as.

The bug isn't in gas, since the relocation contains the proper offset.
My guess is the bug is in ld.so, but I havn't had a chance to verify
that; it could potentially be in ld.

Just as an aside, it's helpful to include the relocs (objdump -dr)
when including this sort of snippet in a bug report.  The instructions
alone aren't very informative without the relocs used, when they're
GP-based.  (Any interesting changes in the literal sections would be
good to know too.)

I'm in the middle of some gcc work right now, but I may look at this
tomorrow if Ian or Richard don't.

* An alpha/gas bug
@ 1997-11-06 11:54 H.J. Lu

The recent gas has an alpha bug. I enclosed 4 files here:

1. foo.cc is the source code.
2. foo.s is compiled with -O -S on linux/alpha with egcs 971031.
3. good.o is assembled with gas in binutils 2.8.1.
4. bad.o is assembled with gas in binutils gas-971031.

I can use good.o with both libstdc++.so and libstdc++.a to generate
a working binary. But I can use bad.o only with libstdc++.a to 
generate a working binary. When I link bad.o with libstdc++.so,
I get junk output after

2 empty strings:

It seems that the return value from cout << is messed up when
libstdc++.so is used.

BTW, the asm output from -O2 works fine with gas-971031. From
what I see, binutils 2.8.1 and binutils gas-971031 treat

	lda $0,_t12basic_string2ZcZt18string_char_traits1Zc$nilRep+32

differently. binutils 2.8.1 generates

	ldq     v0,0(gp)
	lda     v0,32(v0)

and gas-971031 generates

	ldq     v0,0(gp)

I think that is a bug in gas.
