Red Hat Linux 7.1 plus some errata
gcc rpm is 2.96-85
Pentium III processor
>Description:
Compile and run the following program:
unsigned int byteSwap(unsigned int * word)
{
char* byte;
unsigned int *uip;
char newWord[4];
byte = (char*) word;
newWord[3] = *byte++;
newWord[2] = *byte++;
newWord[1] = *byte++;
newWord[0] = *byte++;
uip = (unsigned int*)newWord;
return *uip;
}
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned int ui;
ui=0x11223344;
printf("%08x\n", byteSwap(&ui));
}
If -O2 optimization is used, the output is: 4433f894 (incorrect)
If -O1 optimization is used, the output is: 44332211 (correct)
With -O2 optimization, if the variable newWord is declared static,
the output is correct.
