Subject: [PATCH -tip] x86/asm: Use %a instead of %c(%%rip) in rip_rel_ptr()
Date: Sun, 4 May 2025 20:43:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250504184342.125253-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)
The "a" asm operand modifier substitutes a memory reference, with the
actual operand treated as address. For x86_64, when a symbol is
provided, the "a" modifier emits "sym(%rip)" instead of "sym".
No functional changes intended.
