Hi Pedro, what are you talking about? Please send disassemblies, map files, C samples programs. Let’s focusing on the most urgent intrinsic function needed for / % << and >> operators first. Quick note are really not helpful, but irritating. Regrads, Kilian From: Pedro Falcato Sent: Friday, January 28, 2022 05:00 PM To: edk2-devel-groups-io; kraxel@redhat.com Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH 00/24] CryptoPkg/openssl: update openssl submodule to v3.0 Also, quick note: I've seen linking blowing up because the ABIs being used in the bare metal code and in libgcc were different; this was in riscv64. I know x86 doesn't do such checks but a few others do, including RISCV (they tag object files with the ABI). This makes libgcc unusable in such architectures. If we want to provide intrinsics, then possibly shipping our own compiler-rt would be the only solid option.

There is a command line switch to pick which one you want (-static-libgcc, -shared-libgcc). > It seems to me that GNU holds the intrinsic functions in a separate library > that can be used without any change, and is always correct by definition. > 1. add libgcc.a as a search library, adjust the conf\tools_def.txt like: > > DEBUG_GCCxx_IA32_DLINK_FLAGS = …predefined parameter … /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/6/libgcc.a gcc documentation suggests to use just '-lgcc' (should pick the correct library no matter what the compiler version and architecture is), so I tried this: -DEFINE GCC_DLINK2_FLAGS_COMMON = -Wl,--script=$(EDK_TOOLS_PATH)/Scripts/GccBase.lds +DEFINE GCC_DLINK2_FLAGS_COMMON = -Wl,--script=$(EDK_TOOLS_PATH)/Scripts/GccBase.lds -lgcc Build doesn't come very far. Looks like the gcc intrinsics are not free-standing but want call into libc: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_absvsi2.o): in function `__absvdi2': (.text+0x18): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_absvsi2.o): in function `__absvsi2': (.text+0x32): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_absvdi2.o): in function `__absvti2.cold': (.text.unlikely+0x2): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_addvsi3.o): in function `__addvdi3': (.text+0xf): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_addvsi3.o): in function `__addvsi3': (.text+0x2d): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_addvdi3.o):(.text.unlikely+0x2): more undefined references to `abort' follow /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(_eprintf.o): in function `__eprintf': (.text+0x8): undefined reference to `stderr' /usr/bin/ld: (.text+0x1d): undefined reference to `fprintf' /usr/bin/ld: (.text+0x25): undefined reference to `fflush' /usr/bin/ld: (.text+0x2a): undefined reference to `abort' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/libgcc.a(generic-morestack.o): in function `__morestack_fail': (.text+0xbc): undefined reference to `writev' [ ... more errors snipped ... ] The generic-morestack.o issues should be solvable, that shouldn't be something which tianocore actually needs. Not sure why the linker tries to resolve symbols for object files which should not be needed in the first place. Possibly something else is fishy here, any hints are welcome. Something in the linker script maybe? But the math intrinsics apparently having error paths which print a message and abort doesn't look very promising to me. Also: When trying arm cross-builds I run into the ABI problem already mentioned elsewhere in this thread: /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnu-ld: error: /usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/11/libgcc.a(_muldi3.o) uses VFP register arguments, /home/kraxel/projects/edk2/Build/ArmVirtQemu-ARM/DEBUG_GCC5/ARM/OvmfPkg/VirtioBlkDxe/VirtioBlk/DEBUG/VirtioBlkDxe.dll does not Patches are here: https://github.com/kraxel/edk2/commits/intrinsics-playground > >* I have my doubts that compiler's builtin libraries are optimized for > > size, so I'd suspect we would see a noticeable size grow from that. > Please check the size of __udivdi3() and whether the tianocore reimplementation is smaller or not I'll rather check the size of the final binaries, but I can only do that once the build works ... > The intrinsic library belongs to the compiler not to the build system. I'm open to explore that path, but apparently we have a number of road blocks along the way. Seems neither gcc nor xcode (see other reply) provide a usable free-standing intrinsic library ... take care, Gerd
