-Subject: [PATCH] ARM: 7668/1: fix memset-related crashes caused by recent GCC
- (4.7.2) optimizations
-
-Recent GCC versions (e.g. GCC-4.7.2) perform optimizations based on
-assumptions about the implementation of memset and similar functions.
-The current ARM optimized memset code does not return the value of
-its first argument, as is usually expected from standard implementations.
-
-For instance in the following function:
-
-void debug_mutex_lock_common(struct mutex *lock, struct mutex_waiter *waiter)
-{
- memset(waiter, MUTEX_DEBUG_INIT, sizeof(*waiter));
- waiter->magic = waiter;
- INIT_LIST_HEAD(&waiter->list);
-}
-
-compiled as:
-
-800554d0 <debug_mutex_lock_common>:
-800554d0: e92d4008 push {r3, lr}
-800554d4: e1a00001 mov r0, r1
-800554d8: e3a02010 mov r2, #16 ; 0x10
-800554dc: e3a01011 mov r1, #17 ; 0x11
-800554e0: eb04426e bl 80165ea0 <memset>
-800554e4: e1a03000 mov r3, r0
-800554e8: e583000c str r0, [r3, #12]
-800554ec: e5830000 str r0, [r3]
-800554f0: e5830004 str r0, [r3, #4]
-800554f4: e8bd8008 pop {r3, pc}
-
-GCC assumes memset returns the value of pointer 'waiter' in register r0; causing
-register/memory corruptions.
-
-This patch fixes the return value of the assembly version of memset.
-It adds a 'mov' instruction and merges an additional load+store into
-existing load/store instructions.
-For ease of review, here is a breakdown of the patch into 4 simple steps:
-
-Step 1
-======
-Perform the following substitutions:
-ip -> r8, then
-r0 -> ip,
-and insert 'mov ip, r0' as the first statement of the function.
-At this point, we have a memset() implementation returning the proper result,
-but corrupting r8 on some paths (the ones that were using ip).
-
-Step 2
-======
-Make sure r8 is saved and restored when (! CALGN(1)+0) == 1:
-
-save r8:
-- str lr, [sp, #-4]!
-+ stmfd sp!, {r8, lr}
-
-and restore r8 on both exit paths:
-- ldmeqfd sp!, {pc} @ Now <64 bytes to go.
-+ ldmeqfd sp!, {r8, pc} @ Now <64 bytes to go.
-(...)
- tst r2, #16
- stmneia ip!, {r1, r3, r8, lr}
-- ldr lr, [sp], #4
-+ ldmfd sp!, {r8, lr}
-
-Step 3
-======
-Make sure r8 is saved and restored when (! CALGN(1)+0) == 0:
-
-save r8:
-- stmfd sp!, {r4-r7, lr}
-+ stmfd sp!, {r4-r8, lr}
-
-and restore r8 on both exit paths:
- bgt 3b
-- ldmeqfd sp!, {r4-r7, pc}
-+ ldmeqfd sp!, {r4-r8, pc}
-(...)
- tst r2, #16
- stmneia ip!, {r4-r7}
-- ldmfd sp!, {r4-r7, lr}
-+ ldmfd sp!, {r4-r8, lr}
-
-Step 4
-======
-Rewrite register list "r4-r7, r8" as "r4-r8".
