           Summary: dynamic arrays in combination with SSE instructions
                    cause segment faults
           Product: D
           Version: 0.162
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: wrong-code
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD

        ReportedBy: thomas-dloop@kuehne.cn


If compiled with -version=dynamic, the code below segmentfaults.

import std.stdio;

int main(){
        version(dynamic){
                double[] a = new double[2];
                double[] b = new double[2];
        }else{
                double[2] a;
                double[2] b;
        }

        a[0] = 4.0;
        a[1] = 2.0;

        b[0] = -0.5;
        b[1] = -0.25;

        writefln("a:\t%s\t%s", a[0], a[1]);
        writefln("b:\t%s\t%s", b[0], b[1]);

        asm{
                movupd XMM0, a;
                movupd b, XMM0;
                emms;
        }
        writefln("-- asm finished --");

        writefln("a:\t%s\t%s", a[0], a[1]);
        writefln("b:\t%s\t%s", b[0], b[1]);

        return 0;
}

It segment faults because dynamic arrays are stored differently than static arrays. When using inline asm, one must account for this. For the dynamic arrays, using the following will work:

asm{
        mov EAX,a+4;
        movupd XMM0, [EAX];
        mov EAX,b+4;
        movupd [EAX], XMM0;
        emms;
}
