[Mspgcc-users] GCC-Bug ?

[Joerg Huebler]

Hello,

I'm trying to adapt the FreeRTOS (www.freertos.org) to the MSP430(F449) and 
found
some strange behaviour of the compiler in the file 
"list.c" function "pvListGetOwnerOfNextEntry".

Original Sourcecode is:

volatile void *pvListGetOwnerOfNextEntry( volatile xList *pxList )
{
        if( !listLIST_IS_EMPTY( pxList ) )
        {
                /* Increment the index to the next item and return the item, 
ensuring
                we don't return the marker used at the end of the list. */
                pxList->pxIndex = pxList->pxIndex->pxNext;
#ifdef __GNUrC__
                if( (pxList->pxIndex - pxList->pxHead) == NULL )
#else
                if( pxList->pxIndex == pxList->pxHead )
#endif
                {
                        pxList->pxIndex = pxList->pxIndex->pxNext;
                }
                return pxList->pxIndex->pvOwner;
        }
        return NULL;
}



and that's what the compiler generated:


#ifdef __GNUrC__
                if( (pxList->pxIndex - pxList->pxHead) == NULL )
#else
                if( pxList->pxIndex == pxList->pxHead )
    1528:       1e 4d 02 00     mov     2(r13), r14     ;
    152c:       2f 4d           mov     @r13,   r15     ;
    152e:       05 24           jz      $+12            ;abs 0x153a
#endif

I'm missing a comparision between 152c and 152e !
(To get a valid result just remove the "r" from __GNUrC__)

Is it really a bug, do I have to modify arguments of the command line or
anything else ?


I'm using msp430-gcc 3.2.3 (binaries downloaded from www.mikrocontroller.net)
Win98. For playing with it I attached the sources.
