Hi,
I have found one bug in simulator while debugging h8300h target in GDB.
************************** test.s ***********************************
.h8300h
.section .text
.global _start
_start:
mov #0xFFEFC0,er7
mov.l er6,@-er7
mov.l er7,er6
mov.l @er7+,er6
_exit:
sleep
bra _exit
.end
**********************************************************************
Above code is compiled with following command,
h8300-elf-gcc -mh -nostartfiles -Wa,-gdwarf2 -o test.out test.s
When test.out is loaded in GDB simulator, the first insn at _start gets executed properly.
But after executing "mov.l er6,@-er7" insn, value of er7 becomes 0x3EFBC instead of 0xFFEFBC.
The address range for H8300H targets is defined as 18 bits.
But actually it is 24 bits, same as of H8300S targets.
Can you elaborate on what you mean by "actually"? You mean the
chip implements 24 bit addressing, even though it is specified for 18?
That's a pretty radical difference.
I almost wonder whether this would be regarded as an "undocumented
feature". It isn't clear that we should deviate from the published
spec without at least consulting the manufacturer.
Following is a patch which fixes this bug,
