The issue was found and reported by hynman [1] when compiling reaver for ar71xx
(Big Endian MIPS).

Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: UAPI: Ignore __arch_swab{16,32,64} when using MIPS16
|
|
|
|
Some GCC versions (e.g. 4.8.3) can incorrectly inline a function with
|
|
MIPS32 instructions into another function with MIPS16 code [1], causing
|
|
the assembler to genereate incorrect binary code or fail right away
|
|
complaining about unrecognized opcode.
|
|
|
|
In the case of __arch_swab{16,32}, when inlined by the compiler with
|
|
flags `-mips32r2 -mips16 -Os', the assembler can fail with the following
|
|
error.
|
|
|
|
{standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2'
|
|
|
|
For performance concerns and to workaround the issue already existing in
|
|
older compilers, just ignore these 2 functions when compiling with
|
|
mips16 enabled.
|
|
|
|
[1] Inlining nomips16 function into mips16 function can result in
|
|
undefined builtins, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55777
