[Bug ld/18414] TOC optimization bug (ignoring data deps on addis/ld - nop/ld opt)
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18414 --- Comment #6 from Hal Finkel hfinkel at anl dot gov --- (In reply to Alan Modra from comment #1) True, ld will do this. However, the optimization is relying on gcc to generate code that can be optimized this way.. So I'm assuming the example code was from llvm or assembly. gcc ensures that the optimization is valid by adding a dependency on r2 to the low part of the address calculation. LLVM updated to add extra r2 read dependencies on instructions with @toc@l relocations in r237556. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
[Bug gas/18427] New: GNU as slow on hppa architecture
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18427 Bug ID: 18427 Summary: GNU as slow on hppa architecture Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: gas Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: deller at gmx dot de CC: dave.anglin at bell dot net Target Milestone: --- Target: hppa Created attachment 8323 -- https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=8323action=edit preprocessed assembler testcase I noticed that the GNU assembler is sometimes incredible slow with assembly of C++ files on hppa. Because of that I did a gprof analysis (using the cross-assembler for hppa running on x86_64) while running gas on a somewhat bigger assembler file (preprocessed from the debian vtk package). Here is the result, and it's pretty clear: Flat profile: Each sample counts as 0.01 seconds. % cumulative self self total time seconds secondscalls ms/call ms/call name 81.76 86.3886.38 821598 0.11 0.11 pa_undefine_label 3.34 89.91 3.53 194747 0.02 0.02 pa_define_label 1.66 91.66 1.75 read_a_source_file 1.13 92.85 1.19 2442950 0.00 0.00 frag_offset_fixed_p 0.73 93.62 0.77 660 1.17 1.17 do_scrub_chars 0.63 94.29 0.67 symbol_print_statistics 0.55 94.87 0.58 1414839 0.00 0.00 operand 0.46 95.36 0.49 3866615 0.00 0.00 frag_now_fix ... 0.00105.65 0.001 0.0076.43 resolve_local_symbol_values 0.00105.65 0.001 0.00 0.00 s_app_file 0.00105.65 0.001 0.00 0.01 s_space 0.00105.65 0.001 0.00 0.00 s_weakref 0.00105.65 0.001 0.00 0.00 symbol_insert So, the pa_undefine_label() function seems problematic. I talked to Dave Anglin about that issue, and he came up with the attached patch. This patch seems to work and speeds up gas a lot, but it will most likely break HP-UX (which uses multiple segments). Maybe the experts here have some other idea? A gzipped-testcase which expands to a 21MB assembler-file is attached. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils

I talked to Dave Anglin about that issue, and he came up with the attached patch. This patch seems to work and speeds up gas a lot, but it will most likely break HP-UX (which uses multiple segments). Actually, ELF targets such as Linux have multiple segments. Assembly time blows up when -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections are used. The lists for each segment are poorly managed, so both the number of lists and their length grows. All this overhead is to find the previous label emitted in the current space/segment. In practice, GCC never plays with spaces/segments between emitting the label and its associated instruction. So, the previous label is what's needed. The tracking is for hand crafted assembly code. The patch doesn't affect 32-bit HP-UX SOM. The patch might affect 64-bit HP-UX. I haven't tried it on 64-bit HP-UX. -- John David Anglin dave.ang...@bell.net -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
