[Linux-ia64] gcc/as problem: integer operand out of range

[Linux-ia64] gcc/as problem: integer operand out of range

[Thomas Hiller]

When I compile a c++ program with gcc I get the following messages:

iaxxsldc.S: Assembler messages:
iaxxsldc.S:4791: Error: Bad operand value: integer operand out of range
iaxxsldc.S:4861: Error: Bad operand value: integer operand out of range
iaxxsldc.S:4879: Error: Bad operand value: integer operand out of range
iaxxsldc.S:8895: Error: Bad operand value: integer operand out of range
iaxxsldc.S:8933: Error: Bad operand value: integer operand out of range

where 4791 reads as follows:
add     r32 = -8808, r32

Is this a gas problem ? A gcc problem ?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Thomas

	iaxxsldc.S: Assembler messages:

If the compiler generated this instruction, then the compiler is at fault.

However, it looks like you are compiling a hand-written assembly file, because
the filename in the error message ends in .S.  The only way that can happen
is if you feed an assembly file to the compiler.  In this case, the error would
be in the hand-written assembly language code.
