Hi,
I am using the 'makelst' script in the scripts directory to generate
interleaved source code and assembly listing. This script uses 'objdump'
Now my problem is that the original C code and the .lst files dont seem to
match. They are listed below.
I get an oops with EIP at c01b3230. But the corresponding C code for that
(switch (n % 4)) isnt written by me!! In other words the instructions
between c01b3223 - c01b3232 dont seem to make sense.
Can anybody throw any light on this 'phenomena' ?
BTW, the string ': "memory");' seems to be repeating in a lot of
places in the .lst file. Is there something about objdump that i havent
read up on.
Regards,
Amit
Original code:
-------------
/* .......
So host > network > gateway entries.
*/
for (i=0; i < MAX_ROUTING_ENTRIES; i++)
{
/* copy the routing entry into our local variable..just to be safe
We will optimize later by doing without this copy */
memcpy(&tmp_entry, ptr_route, sizeof(struct routing_entry));
switch(tmp_entry.rt_flag)
{
case 'H':
/* if dest ip is a host entry */
----- end original code -----------------
Code generated using 'makelst:

memcpy is a macro. See linux/include/asm-i386/string.h.
