Subject: Divide by zero works on ia64!!!
Date: Mon, 09 May 2005 15:23:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1115652187.28663.4.camel@lyra.fc.hp.com> (raw)
Following program causes floating point exception on x86 (compiled with
gcc 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8)) as expected, but runs fine on ia64 when
compiled with gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8).
main()
{
int a, b;
a = b = 0;
printf("a = %d, b = %d, a/b = %d\n", a, b, a/b);
a = 1;
b = 0;
printf("a = %d, b = %d, a/b = %d\n", a, b, a/b);
}
Here is what I get on a machine running 2.6.10 kernel:
# ./tst
a = 0, b = 0, a/b = 0
a = 1, b = 0, a/b = 0
Someone else tried Intel compiler and it generated code that caused
floating point exception as it should.
Something is busted in gcc.
