Open Defects in Release

ID Summary State Reported In Release Target Release Workaround Release Notes
CODEGEN-1705 Compiler documentation and RTS disagree on function names _TI_start_pprof_collection and _TI_stop_pprof_collection Planned ARM_16.9.0.LTS
SDSCM00052878 Compiler and documentation disagree on spelling of #pragma pack. Compiler: pack Manual: PACK Open ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00052872 #pragma LOCATION and palign do not work together Open ARM_16.3.0.STS One workaround is to use specific placement in the linker command file. In the C code, replace the #pragma LOCATION with a #pragma DATA_SECTION ... #pragma DATA_SECTION(device_fw_info_ptr, "for_device"); And in the linker command file, replace the whole .TI.bound line with this ... for_device > 0x00018000, palign(8), fill = 0xffffffff

SDSCM00049284 Compiler misreports Misra warning 10.1 Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00049280 Ill advised enum scalar usage gets MISRA diagnostic, but similar usage of enum array does not Open ARM_16.3.0.STS

SDSCM00046352 Disassembler does not emit certain instructions in UAL form by default Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00046102 MISRA 12.8 and MISRA 10.5 false positives Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00046074 Cortex-M0 library lacks uread4, etc. Open ARM_16.3.0.STS If using the TI compiler, the TI compiler doesn't call any of these functions, so no workaround should be necessary. If using any other vendor's compiler and linking with the TI toolchain, link with the other vendor's toolchain.
SDSCM00044038 float library functions misbehave with --abi=eabi -mv5e -me --float_support=fpalib Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00044035 float library functions misbehave with -me --float_support=fpalib Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Use --float_support=vfplib instead.
SDSCM00042945 -pdse=195 causes an error under EABI if any standard header file is included Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00042418 Internal error when compiling code with WEAK functions; linker crash Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS None
SDSCM00040934 Structure is not initialized correctly when using -o2 or -o3 optimization Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS The initialization will have to be done at run-time, through a __sti initialization routine. You can see this routine when compiling without optimization. To workaround the compiler removing this initialization routine, initialize the object at the beginning of main: Info2.mSize = ((unsigned)_end_isr_stack - (unsigned)_start_isr_stack);
SDSCM00040523 The _ssat16 intrinsic allows literals in the range of 0-31, but the SSAT16 instruction only accepts values from 1-16 Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00040522 _ssatl intrinsic allows 3rd argument to be 0 resulting in an assembler error. Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00039636 When creating a partial linked ELF object file, the linker uses virtual addresses instead of relative addresses. Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00039626 ARM assembler does not issue a warning for PC-relative loads when --embedded_constants=off Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00039220 Assembler does not accept the SP operand of the SRSDB instruction Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Omit the SP! operand and the instruction should assemble correctly.
SDSCM00038278 ARM floating point conversion routines do not support NaN Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00037308 Assembler does not encode the proper offset for a VLDR immediate instruction in thumb 2 mode Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS The compiler will not generate this instruction. If the instruction is being used in an assembly routine, then it should be compiled in ARM mode. The instruction can be replaced with the following instruction sequence to get the correct results: ADR R0, mysym VLDR D0, [R0, #0]
SDSCM00037227 ARM disassembler error for VMRS instruction Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00037086 ARM assembler allows incorrect VFP registers for some instructions on D16 VFP architectures Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00037008 Linker outputting wrong build attribute name for EABI TAG_VFP_arch on ARM targets Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00036874 Section relative ELF symbol values in partially linking object files should hold the section offset for the symbol Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00036773 LDM/STM -DA/FA/IB/ED viariant instructions erroneously accepted by assembler for Cortex-M3 Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00036770 LDREXD and STREXD instructions erroneously generate errors on Cortex A8 and R4 Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00018691 Linker gives misleading warning when dot expressions used in SECTION directive for .stack section Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00014430 calloc doesn't check arguments to make sure the requested size is reasonable Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS
SDSCM00008685 DWARF does not correctly represent variables stored in register pairs Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Although 'var1' and 'var2' are shown to be in single registers, a debugger could determine that they are actually stored in register pairs by looking at the type of the variables: [00000113] DW_TAG_base_type DW_AT_name long long DW_AT_encoding 0x5 DW_AT_byte_size 0x8 The base type indicates that the size of the variables is 0x8 bytes. Since a single register can only store 0x4 bytes of information, it would take two registers to hold this values. On TI architectures, values stored in multiple registers are always stored in consecutive registers. Thus, the debugger would know that if the entire value could not fit in A4, the rest of the value must be in A5. A5 would contain the upper 32 bits of the value.
SDSCM00008543 Forward reference in .space generates an internal error Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS none
SDSCM00008534 Linker -xml_link_info option doesn't work when in a command file Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Please describe the workaround for this problem.
SDSCM00008465 Language Conformance: crash because of void pointer dereference Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Please describe the workaround for this problem.
SDSCM00008248 Compilers on PC will not work without TMP set Accepted ARM_16.3.0.STS Set the TMP environment variable, even if just set to . (current directory)
