Sun Microdevil Pte LtdAnyone here familiar with SPARC binutils internals? I'm having a rather odd case where the same instruction (and same binary sequence) gets interpreted differently depending on who compiles it :cirnothinking: Say, I have this `decode.s` file containing the following line: decode: addxccc %g0, %g0, %g0One VIS3 instruction, very simple. Then assemble it with both gcc and clang: gcc -mcpu=niagara4 -c decode.s -o decode-gcc.o clang -mcpu=niagara4 -c decode.s -o decode-clang.oAnd now, if I run objdump on the files, the results are different: decode-clang.o: file format elf64-sparcDisassembly of section .text:0000000000000000 <decode>: 0: 81 b0 02 60 unknownCompare with GCC's: decode-gcc.o: file format elf64-sparcDisassembly of section .text:0000000000000000 <decode>: 0: 81 b0 02 60 addxccc %g0, %g0, %g0In both cases the binary stream is the same, but why does objdump decodes it as "unknown" with the clang-built file?Edit: found it, seems like GCC sets something in the attribute section:Attribute Section: gnu File Attributes Tag_GNU_Sparc_HWCAPS: vis3Though as far as I can tell other than odd objump output it doesn't seem to affect binary execution, etc.<a href="https://uwu.social/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AskFedi</a> <a href="https://uwu.social/tags/Binutils" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Binutils</a> <a href="https://uwu.social/tags/GCC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GCC</a> <a href="https://uwu.social/tags/SPARC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SPARC</a>
