Hi

I'm working on updating Valgrind for FreeBSD 13.1.

One of the problems that I see is with the testcase none/tests/amd64/amd64locked

Here's a link to the source

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=valgrind.git;a=blob;f=none/tests/amd64/amd64locked.c;h=baf9bbe1eca91ac672e4373d8f58a476cf4de9d5;hb=HEAD


The problem is nor related to Valgrind. If I run the executable alone it fails


$ ./amd64locked
amd64locked: FAIL: CRCs actual 0xA248D739 expected 0xDF0656F1
amd64locked: set #define VERBOSE 1 to diagnose

This is on FreeBSD 13.1 RC6 amd64 running on VirtualBox, compiler version

FreeBSD clang version 13.0.0 ([email protected]:llvm/llvm-project.git llvmorg-13.0.0-0-gd7b669b3a303)

I'm not familiar with the code. It's a long test for all amd64 instructions with a lock prefix performing CRC calculations. Compiled without optimization it passes

The source contains this comment


  // So there should be 118 lock-prefixed instructions in the
  // disassembly of this compilation unit.
  // confirm with
  // objdump -d ./amd64locked | grep lock | grep -v do_lock | grep -v elf64 | wc

This also gives the wrong output.

 $  objdump -d ./amd64locked | grep lock | grep -v do_lock | grep -v elf64 | wc
     136    1193    7376

I'll check what this does on Linux.


Any suggestions what can be done? It looks like an issue with the compiler.


A+

Paul
