Re: gdb prints only 128 bits of a YMM register (AVX)


Hi,

I ran this set like below in gdb:

b func2_compare_32bitsPack
commands 1
print $ymm1.v2_int128
print $ymm2.v2_int128
print $ymm3.v2_int128
print $ymm4.v2_int128
print $ymm5.v2_int128
print $ymm6.v2_int128
print $ymm7.v2_int128
print $ymm8.v2_int128
print $ymm9.v2_int128
print $ymm10.v2_int128
print $ymm11.v2_int128
print $ymm12.v2_int128
print $ymm13.v2_int128
print $ymm14.v2_int128
print $ymm15.v2_int128
continue
end

Concerning my problem, I found the reason: it's because of the
compiler optimization. If I compile my program without using any
optimization switch, the AVX register is completely set.

Thanks,
Laurent
