Hi!
I tried to compile the newest kaffe dist and I found some problems:
1., config/i386/jit.h:
...
#define CALL_KAFFE_FUNCTION_VARARGS(meth, obj, nargs, argptr, retval) \
asm volatile (" \n\
movl %3,%0 \n\
1: cmpl $0,%0
\n\
je 2f \n\
decl %0
\n\
pushl (%4,%0,4)
\n\
jmp 1b \n\
2: pushl %2 \n\
call *%1 \n\
movl %3,%%ecx \n\
lea 4(%%esp,%%ecx,4),%%esp" \
: "=&a"(retval) \
: "g"(METHOD_NATIVECODE(meth)), "g"(obj), "m"(nargs), \
"r"(argptr) : "eax", "ecx", "edx", "cc", "memory")
...
I got the following error message while compiling kaffe/kaffevm/funcs.c
(?):
- CALL_KAFFE_FUNCTION_VARARGS: inconstistent operand constrains (I think
at line 80 and 2 more places).
I solve this problem by replacing this block with the older one at kaffe
0.9 (Is this correct ?)
2., config/i386/trampolines:
#define START_ASM_FUNC() ".text\n\t.align 4\n\t.global "
Ugh, that was a nice error that I've never heard! I could'n remember but
I had to change the '.global' to '.globl' and replace this line:
#define C_FUNC_NAME(FUNC) #FUNC
to
#define C_FUNC_NAME(FUNC) "_" #FUNC
OK. After these problems I managed to compile kaffe but when I wanted to
compile the test/HelloWorldApp.java I got '255 Illegal Instruction'
first and at the next try '258 Illegal Instruction' and so on...
Well, I don't know what to do now so I ask you and Tim to help me!
