Hi,

This patch adds missing assembly directives to the CMSE library wrapper to call 
functions with attribute cmse_nonsecure_call.  Without the .type directive the 
linker will fail to produce the correct veneer if a call to this wrapper 
function is to far from the wrapper itself.  The .size was added for 
completeness, though we don't necessarily have a usecase for it.

I did not add a testcase as I couldn't get dejagnu to disassemble the linked 
binary to check we used an appropriate branch instruction, I did however test 
it locally and with this change the GNU linker now generates an appropriate 
veneer and call to that veneer when __gnu_cmse_nonsecure_call is too far.

OK for trunk and backport to any release branches still in support (after 
waiting a week or so)?

OK.

R.


OK to backport? I was thinking backporting it as far as gcc-11 (we 
haven't done a 11.5 yet).


Kind Regards,
Andre

arm: Add .type and .size to __gnu_cmse_nonsecure_call [PR115360]

2024-06-05 Thread Andre Vieira (lists)

Hi,

This patch adds missing assembly directives to the CMSE library wrapper 
to call functions with attribute cmse_nonsecure_call.  Without the .type 
directive the linker will fail to produce the correct veneer if a call 
to this wrapper function is to far from the wrapper itself.  The .size 
was added for completeness, though we don't necessarily have a usecase 
for it.


I did not add a testcase as I couldn't get dejagnu to disassemble the 
linked binary to check we used an appropriate branch instruction, I did 
however test it locally and with this change the GNU linker now 
generates an appropriate veneer and call to that veneer when 
__gnu_cmse_nonsecure_call is too far.


OK for trunk and backport to any release branches still in support 
(after waiting a week or so)?
