Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ARM : missing corrupted reg in __do_div_asm
Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 13:30:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5575286A.1080002@rdamicro.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1433225609-7148-1-git-send-email-gangchen@rdamicro.com>

Hi,

     I tried to make a test program to illustrate the patch.

Without the patch, the log shows
"[250970.715392] remains1 is 2, remains2 is 0"
And the remains2 is wrong

With the patch, the log is
"[250977.724181] remains1 is 2, remains2 is 4".
now both remains1 and remains2 are correct.

I compared the output assembly and it showed in the faulty version,
r0 ( I am using little endian system) is not reload after the
first do_div and before the second do_div call in function mydiv64.



Br, Chen Gang

#include <asm/div64.h>
#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/printk.h>

typedef unsigned long long ull;

void mydiv64(ull tt, unsigned base1, unsigned base2,
         unsigned *rems1, unsigned *rems2)
{
     ull t = tt;
     *rems1 = do_div(t, base1);
     *rems2 = do_div(tt, base2);
     return ;
}

static int __init div_test(void)
{
     ull t;
     unsigned int remains1;
     unsigned int remains2;
     unsigned base1, base2;

     t = 100;
     base1 = 7;
     base2 = 8;

     mydiv64(t, base1, base2, &remains1, &remains2);
     printk(KERN_ERR"remains1 is %d, remains2 is %d\n",
             remains1, remains2);

     return -1;
}

static void __exit div_test_exit(void)
{
}

module_init(div_test);
module_exit(div_test_exit);
