[avr-gcc-list] Bug found in __mulhi3 - was Is this possibly a bug in avr-gcc ?

[Lee Mitchell]

I believe i have found a bug in code generated by avr-gcc.

The error is in a function called __mulhi3.

The bug occurs when the function is called with the paramaters :-

register R22 = 0x18
register R23 = 0x00
register R24 = 0x01
register R25 = 0x02

ie, the function is performing 0x201 * 0x18

The returned value is 0x18 instead of 0x3018 and is therefore incorrect.

The code generated for the function __mulhi3 is as follows :-

   +00000F0F: 2755      CLR     R21
   +00000F10: 2744      CLR     R20
   +00000F11: FF80      SBRS    R24,0
   +00000F12: C002      RJMP    +0x0002           ; Destination: 0x000F15
   +00000F13: 0F46      ADD     R20,R22
   +00000F14: 1F57      ADC     R21,R23
   +00000F15: 0F66      ADD     R22,R22
   +00000F16: 1F77      ADC     R23,R23
   +00000F17: 0561      CPC     R22,R1
   +00000F18: F021      BREQ    +0x04             ; Destination: 0x000F1D
   +00000F19: 9596      LSR     R25
   +00000F1A: 9587      ROR     R24
   +00000F1B: 0591      CPC     R25,R1
   +00000F1C: F7A1      BRNE    -0x0C             ; Destination: 0x000F11
   +00000F1D: 2F95      MOV     R25,R21
   +00000F1E: 2F84      MOV     R24,R20
   +00000F1F: 9508      RET


I have no idea where the source to this function is located, but i'm sure
some of you do !

Again, I am using the following build of avr-gcc :-

C:\WINDOWS>avr-gcc -v
Reading specs from C:\AVRGCC\BIN\..\lib\gcc-lib\avr\2.97\specs
Configured with:
./configure --prefix=/avrgcc --exec-prefix=/avrgcc --with-ggc=simple --enabl
e-languages=c --with
included-gettext --with-gc=simple --target=avr --host=i386-mingw32 --build=i
386-cygwin
gcc version 2.97 20010108 (experimental)


Is this known ?
Any more information that you good folks would like ?
