Bug ID: 50292
Summary: Clang assembler does not recognize long jumps for x86
intel assembly
Product: clang
Version: 12.0
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: Driver

When clang is invoked on an assembly file, I expect it to be compatible with
gcc and binutils as.
When using Intel syntax, clang does not properly assemble the x86 long jump
instruction, used to reload the code segment descriptor. This happens in
.code16 and .code32 mode.
Here is an example that will assemble with gcc and binutils as, but not with
clang:
```
ian@iankhome:~/k2$ cat bug.S
.intel_syntax noprefix
.code16
.text
.global _start
_start:
jmp 0:.canonicalized_ip
.canonicalized_ip:
jmp 0x18:.protected
.code32
.protected:
jmp 0x28,.long_mode
.long_mode:
ian@iankhome:~/k2$ clang-11 -c bug.S
bug.S:7:7: error: unexpected token in argument list
jmp 0:.canonicalized_ip
^
bug.S:9:10: error: unexpected token in argument list
jmp 0x18:.protected
^
bug.S:12:5: error: invalid operand for instruction
jmp 0x28,.long_mode
^
ian@iankhome:~/k2$ gcc -c bug.S
ian@iankhome:~/k2$ as -c bug.S
ian@iankhome:~/k2$ clang-11 --version
Ubuntu clang version 11.0.0-2~ubuntu20.04.1
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin

Adding the clang command line flags -masm=intel doesn't change clang's
behavior.
