CFG edge visualization to path-printing bootstrap failure

2024-05-20 Thread David Edelsohn
Hi, David

Unfortunately r15-636-g770657d02c986c causes a bootstrap failure on AIX
when building f951 in stage2.  cc1 and cc1plus link successfully. There
doesn't seem to be a similar failure for powerpc64-linux BE or LE.

The failure is

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: _ZTV29range_label_for_type_mismatch
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol:
._ZNK29range_label_for_type_mismatch8get_textEj

which corresponds to

vtable for range_label_for_type_mismatch
range_label_for_type_mismatch::get_text(unsigned int) const

I suspect that something is not being explicitly instantiated, which is
running afoul of the AIX linker.

Somehow your patch is causing the f951 compiler to reference these
additional, undefined symbols.  I suspect that they also are undefined for
Linux targets, but the linker ignores the error and nothing is amiss if the
symbols never are called.

Thanks, David

Why aren't these patches being tested on all major architectures,

[PATCH, libgfortran] aix: Fix building fat library for AIX

2024-05-06 Thread David Edelsohn
aix: Fix building fat library for AIX

With the change in subdirectories, the code for libgfortran fat
libraries
needs to be adjusted to explicitly reference the subdirectory.  AIX
creates fat library archives and the compiler itself can be built as
either 32 bit or 64 bit application and default code generation.  For
the two, alternate versions of the compiler to interoperate, GCC needs
to construct the fat libraries manually.

The Makefile fragment had been trying to leverage as much of the
existing
targets and macros as possible.  With the subdirectory change, the
location of single.o is more obscured and cannot be determined without
libtool.  This patch references the location of the real object file
more explicitly.

Utilizing subst seems like overkill and unnecessary obscuration for a
single
object file.  Either way, it's digging below the libtool abstraction
layer.

This also fixes Fortran bootstrap on AIX.

Re: Request for testing on non-Linux targets; remove special casing of /usr/lib and /lib from the driver

2024-04-19 Thread David Edelsohn
The patch does not cause failures on AIX.  Is it removing explicit
references to /lib and /usr/lib?

It seems more appropriate for GCC 15.

Thanks for alerting me to the patch to test on AIX.  AIX is in CFarm.

AIX stdio.h defines fileno as a macro although there is a symbol in libc.

I think that print.cc at least needs to


#undef fileno


before the usage.

Re: [PATCH v3 0/2] Replace intl/ with out-of-tree GNU gettext

2023-11-20 Thread David Edelsohn
_GLOBAL__F_xxx is the EH frame data.

It's using the filename with full path for the unique name, which is why it
includes .._.._.. .  Apparently it is adding a random number as well for
uniqueness.  I guess that this is the downside of building in tree, and
apparently it is rebuilding gettext itself with the different stages of the
compiler, so the appended random number changes.

Thanks, David

So the question is do we want to change GCC on AIX to always link against
pthreads so that GCC can build with default, external builds of gettext
libintl.  I don't see a path for i18n support to work for GCC on AIX
without that unfortunate change.

I'm concerned that the gettext fixes are working around AIX support for
libpthread.a as opposed to making --disable-threads function.

--enabled-threads=isoc use of mtx_* is a workaround, but it's still not
allowing users to truly disable threads.

There are ibm_clang and ibm_clang_r (previous xlc and xlc_r) to compile
with and without thread safe.   If IBM Clang team
chose to only provide a thread safe version of libc++, okay, but that
doesn't seem like a fundamental requirement.
zlibNX is another can of worms.

An AIX shared library created by libtool will look like
libfoo.a[libfoo.so.N], where N is the package major version number.
Normally with one file.

An AIX static library will look like libfoo.a[a.o, b.o, c.o]
with multiple object files.

An AIX archive can contain a combination of shared objects and
normal object files.

AIX normally uses the convention shr.o or shr_64.o for the name
of the shared object file.  Hint, hint, an AIX archive can contain
both 32 bit and 64 bit object files or shared o

I have reached out to the AIX Open Source Tools team for their
perspective.  Normally GCC and other
FOSS packages have not based their support for OS versions on official
vendor support lifecycles,
within reason.  In fact, many users have appreciated longer duration
support.

My builds of GCC only rely on AIX libc.  All other libraries are statically
linked.

I have asked the IBM Clang team why ibm-clang depends on libpthreads.

One option is to add -lpthreads to the link line, even if the tools are not
built
thread-safe.  Only the intl support would invoke the extraneous overhead.
The downside is that other pthreads dependencies could sneak in.

The previous version of "intl" was built as a static library.  Configure in
the older package had the option --enable-host-shared,
which I did not use.  Based on the failure message, the in-tree gettext
seems to be built as a shared library.  If you explicitly
pass --disable-shared to the in-tree configure, you may get farther.  I'm
currently using --disable-shared --disable-threads.
As we have discussed, the current gettext will retain some references to
pthreads despite the configure option.

I reconfigured and built gettext with --enable-threads=isoc .  libintl.a
still contains references to pthread_mutex and friends:

$ nm -BCpg libintl.a  | grep pthread

 - U __n_pthreads

 - U .pthread_mutex_lock

 - U .pthread_mutex_unlock

 - U .pthread_mutex_lock

 - U .pthread_mutex_unlock
 - U __n_pthreads

from files mbrtowc, setlocale_null, and vasnwprintf.

I tested on an AIX 7.2.5 system and confirmed that libc does provide the
mtx_ symbols:

$ nm -BCpg libc.a | grep mtx_

 0 T .mtx_timedlock

   160 T .mtx_unlock

   256 T .mtx_trylock

   416 T .mtx_lock

   512 T .mtx_init

   736 T .mtx_destroy

80 D mtx_timedlock

92 D mtx_unlock

   104 D mtx_trylock

   116 D mtx_lock

   128 D mtx_init

   140 D mtx_destroy


Were you suggesting that --enable-threads=isoc would work now or that it
would require further changes for a future release?


At the moment, configuring gettext with --disable-threads and manually
modifying config.h is the only method that produces

libintl.a without references to pthreads allowing GCC to build on AIX with
NLS enabled.

Re: [PATCH v3 0/2] Replace intl/ with out-of-tree GNU gettext

2023-11-16 Thread David Edelsohn
Don't build with the dependent libraries in tree.  Don't build the
dependent libraries as shared libraries. The libraries are already built
and in /opt/cfarm, as mentioned in the Compile Farm wiki.

AIX is not Solaris and not Linux.  It doesn't use ELF.  AIX shared
libraries *ARE* shared object files in archives.  Shared object versioning
is handled by multiple objects in the same archive.

Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

2023-11-16 Thread David Edelsohn
I manually commented out HAVE_PTHREAD_API from config.h and produced a
libintl.a without references to pthreads.  Configuring GCC with that custom
libintl.a enables NLS.  I now am building GCC with NLS and we will see how
well it functions.

gettext depends on pthreads by default and the versions distributed.

Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

Bruno,

The issue appears to be that intl/gnulib-lib/{mbrtowc.c,setlocale_null.c}
include pthread.h based on HAVE_PTHREAD_API, which is defined as 1 in
intl/config.h build directory despite requesting --disable-pthreads.

The latest issue is that a few files in gettext ignore --disable-pthreads
and creates a dependency on pthread_mutex.

I configured gettext with --disable-pthreads and libintl.a still contains

Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

2023-11-16 Thread David Edelsohn
Bruno,

I have been able to tweak the environment and build gettext and libintl.
With the updated libintl and environment, GCC reliably does not use NLS.

The issue is that libintl utilizes pthreads.  AIX does not provide no-op
pthread stubs in libc.  pthreads is an explicit multilib on AIX.

It is great that gettext and libintl can be built thread-safe, but GCC
(cc1, gcov, etc.) are not pthreads applications and are not built with
pthreads.  Because libintl defaults to pthreads enabled, NLS cannot
function in GCC on AIX by default.  The GCC included gettext was built in
the default for GCC libraries, which was not pthreads enabled.

I can rebuild libintl with --disable-pthreads and I will see if that works,
but the default, distributed libintl library will not allow GCC to be built
with NLS enabled.  And, no, GCC on AIX should not be forced to build with
pthreads.

This is a regression in NLS support in GCC.

Thanks, David

Bruno,

I am using my own install of GCC for a reason.  The build of GCC works for
everything else, including bootstrap of GCC, GDB, GMP, etc.  The only
problem is gettext.

Thanks, David

The AIX system in the Compile Farm has a complete complement of Open Source
software installed.

Please ensure that /opt/freeware/bin is in your path.  Also, the GCC Wiki
Compile Farm page has build tips that include AIX

https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm#Services_and_software_installed_on_farm_machines

that recommended --with-included-gettext configuration option.

--disable-nls gets past the breakage, but GCC does not build for me on AIX
with NLS enabled.

A change in dependencies for GCC should have been announced and more widely
socialized in the GCC development mailing list, not just GCC patches
mailing list.

I have tried both the AIX Open Source libiconv and libgettext package, and
the ones that I previously built.  Both fail because GCC configure decides
to disable NLS, despite being requested, while libcpp is satisfied, so
tools in the gcc subdirectory don't link against libiconv and the build
fails.  With the included gettext, I was able to rely on a self-consistent
solution.

The current gettext-0.22.3 fails to build for me on AIX.

libcpp configure believes that NLS functions on AIX, but gcc configure
fails in its tests of gettext functionality, which leads to an inconsistent
configuration and build breakage.

Thanks, David

[Resending from correct email.]

Hi, Surya

Thanks for working on this issue and creating a patch.

It helps if you explicitly send patches to Segher and me, and copy
gcc-patches.

+/* Return true if insn is a non-permuting load/store.  */
+static bool
+non_permuting_mem_insn (swap_web_entry *insn_entry, unsigned int i)
+{
+  return (insn_entry[i].special_handling == SH_NOSWAP_LD ||
+  insn_entry[i].special_handling == SH_NOSWAP_ST);
+}

The logical operator || should be at the beginning of the line, not
the end.  That also ensures correct formatting and indentation.  The
|| should be under the "i" of insn on the line above.

It also generally simplifies review to have the ChangeLog in the same
order as changes in the file.  The order of the files relative to the
patch may not be the same, but the ChangeLog entries should be in
sequential order relative to the file.

This patch is okay with the logical operator formatting change.

Thanks, David

This seems like premature optimization.

Hi, Hao

Thanks for the explanation.

Are you stating that although PPC32 supports V16QImode in VSX, the
move_by_pieces support also requires TImode, which is not available on
PPC32?

Thanks, David

How are the definitions of MOVE_MAX_PIECES and COMPARE_MAX_PIECES
determined?  The email does not provide any explanation for the
implementation.  The rest of the patch is related to vector support, but
vector support is not dependent on TARGET_POWERPC64.

Re: [PATCH v3] RISC-V:Optimize the MASK opt generation

The patch works on AIX.

I have Gawk installed, but it is a very old release before
multi-dimensional array support was added.

Thanks, David

Hi, Jeff

Sorry. I didn't see a comment from a global reviewer in the V3 thread.

I am using Gawk on AIX.  After the change, I see a parse error from gawk.
I'm rebuilding with a checkout just before the change to confirm that it
was the source of the error, and it seems to be past that failure
location.  I didn't keep the exact error.  Once I get past this build
cycle, I'll reproduce it.

2023-10-02 Thread David Edelsohn
Wang,

The AWK portions of this patch broke bootstrap on AIX.

Also, the AWK portions are common code, not RISC-V specific.  I don't see
anywhere that the common portions of the patch were reviewed or approved by
anyone with authority to approve the changes to the AWK files.

This patch should not have been committed without approval by a reviewer
with authority for that portion of the compiler and should have been tested
on targets other than RISC-V if common parts of the compiler were changed.

Thanks, David

The comment above the define_insn refers to UNSPEC instead of if-then-else
because of -0.0.
Please remove or update the comment because the pattern no longer uses
UNSPEC.

The rest of the patch is okay with that change.

Was the dependency added to the dependencies in contrib/gcc_update?
Otherwise the timestamp can get out of sync in a Git checkout.

Hi, Arsen

This patch broke bootstrap because it has introduced a new GCC build
requirement for autogen that is not a previous requirement to build GCC.
Previously the repository has included post-processed files.

+# AutoGen .
+.PHONY: update-version
+update-version:
+   cd ${bits_srcdir} && \

The compiler should faithfully implement the algorithms described by the
programmer.  The compiler is responsible if it generates incorrect code for
a well-defined, language-conforming program.  The compiler cannot be
responsible for security issues inherent in the user code, whether that
causes the compiler to function in a manner that deteriorates adversely
affects the system or generates code that behaves in a manner that
adversely affects the system.

If "safe" is the wrong word. What word would you suggest?

At some point the system tools need to respect the programmer or operator.
There is a difference between writing "Hello, World" and writing
performance critical or safety critical code.  That is the responsibility
of the programmer and the development team to choose the right software
engineers and right tools.  And to have the development environment and
checks in place to ensure that the results are meeting the requirements.

It is not the role of GCC or its security policy to tell people how to do
their job or hobby.  This isn't a safety tag required to be attached to a
new mattress.

Hi, Sid

The text above states "bugs in these libraries may be evaluated for
security impact", but there is no comment about the criteria for a security
impact, unlike the GLIBC SECURITY.md document.  The text seems to imply the
"What is a security bug?" definitions from GLIBC, but the definitions are
not explicitly stated in the GCC Security policy.

Should this "Language runtime libraries" section include some of the GLIBC
"What is a security bug?" text or should the GCC "What is a security bug?"
section earlier in this document include the text with a qualification that
issues like buffer overflow, memory leaks, information disclosure, etc.
specifically apply to "Language runtime libraries" and not all components
of GCC?

Thanks, David

As Richard mentioned, should GCC make a specific statement about the
security policy / response for issues that are discovered and fixed in the
upstream projects from which the GCC libraries are imported?

 I believe that upstream projects for components that are imported into GCC
should be responsible for their security policy, including libgo,
gofrontend, libsanitizer (other than local patches), zlib, libtool,
libphobos, libcody, libffi, eventually Rust libcore, etc.

I have added a line to the Note section in the proposed text:

GCC and its tools provide features and options that can run arbitrary
user code (e.g., -fplugin).

I believe that the security implication already is addressed because the
program is not tricked into a direct compromise of security.

Do you have a suggestion for the language to address libgcc, libstdc++,
etc. and libiberty, libbacktrace, etc.?

Thanks, David


[RFC] GCC Security policy

2023-08-07 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
FOSS Best Practices recommends that projects have an official Security
policy stated in a SECURITY.md or SECURITY.txt file at the root of the
repository.  GLIBC and Binutils have added such documents.

Appended is a prototype for a Security policy file for GCC based on the
Binutils document because GCC seems to have more affinity with Binutils as
a tool. Do the runtime libraries distributed with GCC, especially libgcc,
require additional security policies?

[ ] Is it appropriate to use the Binutils SECURITY.txt as the starting
point or should GCC use GLIBC SECURITY.md as the starting point for the GCC
Security policy?

[ ] Does GCC, or some components of GCC, require additional care because of
runtime libraries like libgcc and libstdc++, and because of gcov and
profile-directed feedback?

Thoughts?

Thanks, David

GCC Security Process


What is a GCC security bug?
===

A security bug is one that threatens the security of a system or
network, or might compromise the security of data stored on it.
In the context of GCC there are two ways in which such
bugs might occur.  In the first, the programs themselves might be
tricked into a direct compromise of security.  In the second, the
tools might introduce a vulnerability in the generated output that
was not already present in the files used as input.

Other than that, all other bugs will be treated as non-security
issues.  This does not mean that they will be ignored, just that
they will not be given the priority that is given to security bugs.

This stance applies to the creation tools in the GCC (e.g.,
gcc, g++, gfortran, gccgo, gccrs, gnat, cpp, gcov, etc.) and the
libraries that they use.

Notes:
==

None of the programs in GCC need elevated privileges to operate and
it is recommended that users do not use them from accounts where such
privileges are automatically available.

Reporting private security bugs


   *All bugs reported in the GCC Bugzilla are public.*

   In order to report a private security bug that is not immediately
   public, please contact one of the downstream distributions with
   security teams.  The following teams have volunteered to handle
   such bugs:

  Debian:  secur...@debian.org
  Red Hat: secal...@redhat.com
  SUSE:secur...@suse.de

   Please report the bug to just one of these teams.  It will be shared
   with other teams as necessary.

   The team contacted will take care of details such as vulnerability
   rating and CVE assignment (http://cve.mitre.org/about/).  It is likely
   that the team will ask to file a public bug because the issue is
   sufficiently minor and does not warrant an embargo.  An embargo is not
   a requirement for being credited with the discovery of a security
   vulnerability.

Reporting public security bugs
==

   It is expected that critical security bugs will be rare, and that most
   security bugs can be reported in GCC, thus making
   them public immediately.  The system can be found here:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/


Re: [PATCH] match.pd: Implement missed optimization (~X | Y) ^ X -> ~(X & Y) [PR109986]

2023-07-25 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
Hi, Drew

Thanks for addressing this missed optimization.

The testcase includes an incorrect assumption: signed char, which
causes the testcase to fail on PowerPC.

Should the testcase be updated to specify signed char in the function
signatures or should -fsigned-char be added to the command line
options?

Thanks, David

Segher,

Unfortunately, GCC now is inconsistent and this response is incorrect.
The documentation is out of date or was ignored and the "facts on the
ground" contradict your review.

Yes, (const_int 0) is supposed to be a general no-op and BLKmode only
is supposed to be used for MEM, but other major targets (arm, aarch64,
riscv, s390) all use unspec:BLK and specifically UNSPEC_TIE.  rs6000
is the only port that does not follow this convention.  The middle-end
has adapted to the behavior of all of the other targets, whether that
conformed to the documentation or not.  The rs6000 port needs to be
fixed and Jiufu's approach is the correct one, consistent with all
other targets for stack tie.  If the documentation differs, the
documentation needs to be updated, not a different approach for the
rs6000 port.  Jiufu's patch is correct.

Thanks, David

I recognize that you are trying to be consistent with the other
functions that you add in later patches, but it feels like overkill in
abstraction to me.  Or maybe combine postive_li and negative_li into a
single function so that the abstraction serves a purpose other than a
tail call and creating an alias for a specific invocation of
can_be_rotated_to_lowbits.

2023-06-12 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
Hi, Jiufu

This definitely seems to be a better solution.

The TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR change should not be part of this patch.  Also
there is no ChangeLog for the patch.

This generally looks correct and consistent with other ports. I want
to give Segher a chance to double check it, if he wishes.

Thanks David

[PATCH, AIX] Debugging does not require a stack frame.

2023-06-11 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
The rs6000 port has allocated a stack frame when debugging is enabled
on AIX since the earliest versions of the port.  Apparently the
earliest versions of the debuggers for AIX had difficulty with
stackless frames.

Both AIX DBX and GDB support stackless frames on AIX, and IBM XLC,
OpenXL and LLVM for AIX do not generate an extraneous stack frame when
debugging is enabled.  This patch updates the rs6000 stack info
function to not set the.stack frame flag when debugging is enabled for
AIX.

Bootstrapped on powerpc-ibm-aix7.2.5.0

Committed.

Thanks, David

* gcc/config/rs6000/rs6000-logue.cc (rs6000_stack_info):
Do not require a stack frame when debugging is enabled for AIX.

The comment wording can be worded better.  Maybe

Use the mode of the 128-bit floating constant itself for real_to_target
call.

This is okay.

This is okay.

Do you have any measurement of how expensive it is to test all of these
additional methods to generate a constant?  How much does this affect the
compile time?

using can_be_rotated_to_lowbits (~unmask_c, 15, &n)

Maybe Segher would want the abstraction, but it seems more wasteful to me.

I look at this feature and it's good, but I don't fully understand the
benefit of this level of abstraction.  Ideally all of the above functions
would be inlined.  They aren't reused.

Why not

/* Check if C or ~C can be rotated to a positive or negative value
which 'li' instruction is able to load.  */
if (can_be_rotated_to_lowbits (c, 15, &n)
|| can_be_rotated_to_lowbits (~c, 15, &n))
...

This is a style of software engineering, but it seems overkill to me when
the function is a single line that tail calls another function.  Am I
missing something?

The rest of this patch looks good.

Thanks, David

Re: [PATCH 1/4] rs6000: build constant via li;rotldi

2023-06-02 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
Hi, Jiufu

* config/rs6000/rs6000.cc (can_be_rotated_to_possitive_li): New 
function.
(can_be_rotated_to_negative_li): New function.
(can_be_built_by_li_and_rotldi): New function.
(rs6000_emit_set_long_const): Call can_be_built_by_li_and_rotldi.

In English the word "positive" contains one "s", not two.  Please
correct throughout the patches.

Also a style issue, comments before a function should be followed by a
blank line.

How is mask != HOST_WIDE_INT_M1? The call to
can_by_built_by_li_and_rotldi() set it

to that value and it is not modified in the interim statements.

Hi, Jiufu

Thanks for developing this patch and your persistence.

The rs6000.cc part of the patch (TARGET_CONST_ANCHOR) is okay for Stage 1.
This is approved.

I don't have the authority to approve the change to cse_insn.  Is the
cse_insn change a prerequisite?  Will the rs6000 change break or produce
wrong code without the cse change?  The second part of the patch should be
posted separately to the mailing list, with a cc for appropriate
maintainers, because most maintainers will not be following this specific
thread to approve the other part of the patch.

Thanks, David

Hi, Andrew

Thanks for this series of patches to improve do_store_flag.  Unfortunately
this specific patch in the series has caused a bootstrap failure on
powerpc-aix.  I bisected this failure to this specific patch. Note that I
am building as 32 bit, so this could be a specific issue about bit size.

* expr.cc (fold_single_bit_test): Rename to ...
(expand_single_bit_test): This and expand directly.
(do_store_flag): Update for the rename function.


Thanks, David

AIX defaults to Korn Shell.

I always use Bash on AIX to build GCC and recommend Bash in the GCC build
instructions for AIX.

Do we want to require Bash?  Bash is a more self-contained requirement than
seq from coreutils.

Re: [PATCH RFC] c++: implement P1492 contracts

2022-11-21 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
This patch broke bootstrap on AIX due to its use of strchrnul().  It is an
extension available in Linux, but not all targets.

/src/src/gcc/cp/contracts.cc:213:21: error: 'strchrnul' was not declared in
this scope; did you mean 'strchr'?
  213 |   size_t role_len = strchrnul (role, ':') - role;
  | ^
  | strchr

Would you please avoid the extension or provide an implementation?

Thanks David

Earlier versions of patterns for other targets used (const_int 0), but they
seem to have changed that, so match_operand is needed.

This is better, but the pattern should be near and after the existing
cbranch4 patterns earlier in the file, not the *cbranch pattern.  It
doesn't match the comment.

Why are you using zero_constant predicate instead of matching (const_int 0)
for operand 2?

Why does this need the new all_branch_comparison_operator?  Can the ifcvt
optimization correctly elide the 2 insn sequence?

Thanks, David

Re: [rs6000, patch] Enable have_cbranchcc4 on rs6000

2022-11-16 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
Hao

cbranchcc4 is a named pattern and requires a specific operand ordering.  If
you change *cbranch to cbranchcc4, you must change the order of the
operands, not a quick and dirty hack to *cbranch.  Also, you should change
*cbranch_2insn and *creturn as well so that all of the patterns are
consistent.

See for example the aarch64.md implementation.  and the documentation in
Standard Names

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Standard-Names.html

which mentions cbranch4 and, briefly, cbranchcc4.

You seemed to want to make the minimal change so that the pattern would
work with ifcvt without considering the impact on the existing pattern and
without understanding what a named pattern with specific operands really
means.  You changed the pattern predicate so that the operands in the wrong
positions would match the pattern.

Thanks, David

Shouldn't cbranchcc4 be a separate pattern?  This pattern has an existing
purpose and an expected ordering of operands.

cbranchcc4 is passed the comparison operator as operand 0.  Other ports
ignore the second comparison operator and use (const_int 0).  Operand 3 is
the label, which seems to be the reason that you needed to change it to
match_operand 3.

It's great to add cbranchcc4 to the Power port where it definitely was an
omission, but adapting *cbranch for that purpose is the wrong approach.
The changes to the pattern are incorrect because they are covering up a
difference in ordering of the operands.  One can argue that the named
pattern only enables the functionality in ifcvt and the pattern otherwise
is used in its previous role.  But this is a Frankenstein monster
approach.  You're trying to twist the existing pattern so that it triggers
as cbranchcc4, but creating a pattern that messes up its arguments and only
works because the new, named pattern never is called.  This is too ugly.
Please fix.

Thanks, David

Re: [PATCH] Set discriminators for call stmts on the same line within the same basic block

2022-10-10 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches
This patch causes a bootstrap comparison failure on AIX.  It apparently
does not cause a failure on PPC64BE Linux with the same ABI, so I suspect
that the failure may be related to the way that function aliases are
implemented on AIX, which doesn't have ELF symbol alias semantics.

"This change will also simplify call site lookups since now location with
discriminator will uniquely identify the call site (no callee function name
is needed)."

I will open a PR with more information about the comparison difference now
that I have a work-around to bring AIX back to a bootstrappable state.  Any
thoughts about what could be going wrong?

Thanks, David

I tried the patch but it still failed because the type name "bool"  is not
known.  This patch is the only use of "bool" in the libgcc source code,
which is C, not C++.

I'll let Jason or others decide if this is the right solution.  It seems
that in_shutdown also could be declared outside the #ifdef and initialized

Hi, Martin

Thanks for the quick patch to fix this.  This restores bootstrap, but does
not completely restore functionality.  This patch did not restore the
gcc/configure test for AIX assembler XCOFF feature support that defines
HAVE_XCOFF_DWARF_EXTRAS.  That part of the removal patch also needs to be
reverted.

Thanks, David


Re: [PATCH 1/3] STABS: remove -gstabs and -gxcoff functionality

2022-09-06 Thread David Edelsohn via Gcc-patches

These changes are not correct and break AIX bootstrap.

Those changes are not related to stabs support.  We agreed to remove stabs and

XCOFF stabs support, not GCC DWARF debugging support for AIX.

Also

* configure: Regenerate. Likewise.
* configure.ac: Likewise.

does not list that tests for HAVE_XCOFF_DWARF_EXTRAS was removed, so
the ChangeLog was not accurate.

Again, that test is required for AIX is not part of stabs support.


Please revert this change so that AIX can continue to be bootstrapped
and tested, and we can work together to test a corrected patch.

Thanks, David

AIX does not support IEEE 128 bit  floating point, only the IBM
double-double format.  Also GCC for AIX does not recognize the
attributes and options for other formats, although there are some
patches from Mike to address that.

AIX (and Darwin) are not Linux and not ELF.  There is no support for
BPF.  All of the tests fail, so they are skipped.

Does Power10 fully support int128 in 32 bit mode?  I would expect no,
so the additional test is required.
