This looks like a bug. Unaligned access is enabled for armv6 but seems to only take effect for cores with Thumb-2. Here's a test case both with unaligned field access and unaligned block copy: struct foo { char a; int b; struct { int x[3]; } c; } __attribute__((packed)); int get_field(struct foo *p) { return p->b; } int copy_block(struct foo *p, struct foo *q) { p->c = q->c; } With -march=armv7-a you get the correct: bar: ldr r0, [r0, #1] @ unaligned @ 11 unaligned_loadsi/2 [length = 4] bx lr @ 21 *arm_return [length = 12] baz: str r4, [sp, #-4]! @ 25 *push_multi [length = 4] mov r2, r0 @ 2 *arm_movsi_vfp/1 [length = 4] ldr r4, [r1, #5]! @ unaligned @ 9 unaligned_loadsi/2 [length = 4] ldr ip, [r1, #4] @ unaligned @ 10 unaligned_loadsi/2 [length = 4] ldr r1, [r1, #8] @ unaligned @ 11 unaligned_loadsi/2 [length = 4] str r4, [r2, #5] @ unaligned @ 12 unaligned_storesi/2 [length = 4] str ip, [r2, #9] @ unaligned @ 13 unaligned_storesi/2 [length = 4] str r1, [r2, #13] @ unaligned @ 14 unaligned_storesi/2 [length = 4] ldmfd sp!, {r4} bx lr With -march=armv6 you get a byte-by-byte field access and a correct unaligned block copy: bar: ldrb r1, [r0, #2] @ zero_extendqisi2 ldrb r3, [r0, #1] @ zero_extendqisi2 ldrb r2, [r0, #3] @ zero_extendqisi2 ldrb r0, [r0, #4] @ zero_extendqisi2 orr r3, r3, r1, asl #8 orr r3, r3, r2, asl #16 orr r0, r3, r0, asl #24 bx lr baz: str r4, [sp, #-4]! mov r2, r0 ldr r4, [r1, #5]! @ unaligned ldr ip, [r1, #4] @ unaligned ldr r1, [r1, #8] @ unaligned str r4, [r2, #5] @ unaligned str ip, [r2, #9] @ unaligned str r1, [r2, #13] @ unaligned ldmfd sp!, {r4} bx lr readelf -A shows that the compiler planned to use unaligned access in both. My suspicion is that GCC is using the extv pattern to extract the field from memory, and that pattern is only enabled for Thumb-2 capable cores. I've logged PR55218. We'll discuss it at our next meeting. -- Michael

Hard Floating Point Question

by Derek Rollend

Hello, I am currently trying to determine how much I can optimize OpenCV using the ARM's VFP and the Linaro nano image. I have downloaded the arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc & arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++ compilers, successfully cross-compiled OpenCV using those compilers (with -O3 -mfloat-abi=hard -ftree-vectorize -funroll-loops), and compiled an example OpenCV program with the arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++ compiler (with the same flags). However, when I try and run my executable within Linaro (running on a gumstix overo) I get "/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by /usr/lib/libopencv_core.so.2.2). I assume that this is because on my build machine (x86 Ubuntu 10.04) where I cross compiled the OpenCV libraries I am using libc-2.15, and on the target (gumstix) the loader can't find libc-2.15. However, within the gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.7 tar ball I downloaded today, there is a libc-2.15.so file in there that I copied into /lib/ on the gumstix. Still no success though when I try running my executable. Any recommendations on things to try? I am hesitant to just put a newer version of glibc in Linaro as it seems like that could screw a lot of things up. Should I attempt to re-build OpenCV somehow with an older version of glibc (namely libc-2.13)? Also, please let me know if this is the wrong forum for this question and where I should post it instead. Thanks, Derek
