Summary: warning from Mac OS X linker alignment lost for
-ftree-vectorize optimization
Product: gcc
Version: 4.7.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: ne...@intrepid.com
While running some tests on Mac OS X 10.6.7 I ran into
the following warning from the linker:
ld: warning: alignment lost in merging tentative definition _u_th_arr
Test links without the warning if -fno-tree-vectorize option is
provided when compiling the source.
I didn't have a chance to verify that executable is correct as
my test is hanging - there might be multiple reasons for it.
Linker is:
@(#)PROGRAM:ld PROJECT:ld64-123.2
llvm version 2.9svn, from Apple Clang 2.0 (build 139)
I am attaching a small test program that I checked out against
the snapshot of the compiler 4.7.0 20110604. Here is the output
of the compile/link process:
