<br>
Also further testing found me getting the same behavior with other SIMD instructions. The common factor is in each case, ECX is set to 0x7fffffff, and it's an operation using xmm ptr ecx+offset .<br>
<br>
Additionally, turning the optimization level passed to createJIT down appears to avoid it, so I'm now leaning towards a bug in one of the optimization passes.<br>
<br>
I'm going to dig through the passes controlled by that parameter and see if I can narrow down which optimization is causing it.<br>

As someone off list just told me, perhaps my new bug is the same issue:<br>

Do you happen to be using FastISel?<br>

Hello all,<br>
<br>
I'm currently in the process of debugging a crash occurring in our program. In LLVM 3.2 and 3.3 it appears that JIT generated code is attempting to perform access unaligned memory with a SSE2 instruction. However this only happens under certain conditions that seem (but may not be) related to the stacks state on calling the function.<br>
<br>
Our program acts as a front-end, using the LLVM C++ API to generate a JIT generated function. This function is primarily mathematical, so we use the Vector types to take advantage of SIMD instructions (as well as a few SSE2 intrinsics).<br>
<br>
This worked in LLVM 2.8 but started failing in 3.2 and has continued to fail in 3.3. It fails with no optimizations applied to the LLVM Function/Module. It crashes with what is reported as a memory access error (accessing 0xffffffff), however it's suggested that this is how the SSE fault raising mechanism appears.<br>
<br>
The generated instruction varies, but it seems to often be similar to (I don't have it in front of me, sorry):<br>
movapd xmm0, xmm[ecx+0x???????]<br>
Where the xmm register changes, and the second parameter is a memory access.<br>
ECX is always set to 0x7ffffff - however I don't know if this is part of the SSE error reporting process or is part of the situation causing the error.<br>
<br>
I haven't worked out exactly what code path etc is causing this crash. I'm hoping that someone can tell me if there were any changed requirements for working with SIMD in LLVM 3.2 (or earlier, we haven't tried 3.0 or 3.1). I currently suspect the use of GlobalVariable (we first discovered the crash when using a feature that uses them), however I have attempted using setAlignment on the GlobalVariables without any change.<br>
