Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] tools/nolibc: i386: Fix a stack misalign bug on _start
Date: Sat, 26 Aug 2023 21:16:32 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230826141632.1488740-2-ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230826141632.1488740-1-ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>
The ABI mandates that the %esp register must be a multiple of 16 when
executing a call instruction.
Commit 2ab446336b17 simplified the _start function, but it didn't take
care of the %esp alignment, causing SIGSEGV on SSE and AVX programs that
use aligned move instruction (e.g., movdqa, movaps, and vmovdqa).
Ensure the %esp is a multiple of 16 when executing the call instruction.
