[Bug target/38692] New: ep9312/maverick code generation is broken

[martinwguy at yahoo dot it]

The Cirrus MaverickCrunch code generator has never worked. For example:

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
        int i; double d;
        for (i=3, d=3; i<=5; i++, d++) {
                printf("%g", d);
                if (d < 4.0) printf(" lt";
                if (d > 4.0) printf(" gt");
                if (d <= 4.0) printf(" le");
                if (d >= 4.0) printf(" ge");
                putchar('\n');
        }
}

should output

3 lt le
4 le ge
5 gt ge

but outputs

3 lt le
4 le ge
5 lt gt le ge

There is a set of patches to cleanly fix code generation in EABI environment
under http://martinwguy.co.uk/martin/crunch as weel as description of the
Maverick's other problems and how they are addressed.

gcc 4.3.2-1 on debian gnueabi and current trunk do not seem to generate wrong
code but may be I'm wrong in my setup to reproduce this problem?

guerby@gcc50:~$ cat pr38692.c 
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
        int i; double d;
        for (i=3, d=3; i<=5; i++, d++) {
                printf("%g", d);
                if (d < 4.0) printf(" lt");
                if (d > 4.0) printf(" gt");
                if (d <= 4.0) printf(" le");
                if (d >= 4.0) printf(" ge");
                putchar('\n');
        }
        return 0;
}

This is a bug specific to the maverick set of chips.

-mfloat-abi=softfp is also needed to generate Maverick instructions, and the
resulting binary should give illegal instructions on an Xscale.

If it's useful, there's an n2100 here and an ep9307 board, both running EABI
systems and on 24/7, the first directly on the net and the other on the
localnet accessible from the n2100, accounts on request

I do indeed get an illegal instruction when I add -mfloat-abi=softfp 
I don't have the skills to fix this but thanks for your offer :).

Note: gcc50 is an n2100, part of the GCC compile farm:

Maverick support has now been dropped from GCC.
