Compiler Errors
cc0001
Compiler Error: last line of file ends without a newline
Description
The final line of a source file does not end with a newline character.
Severity
Error, in strict ANSI mode
Warning, otherwise
Recovery
The compiler automatically inserts the missing newline character and continues.
Example
In the following example, the ^ character represents the newline character.
void f(void)^
{^
}

How to Fix
Append a newline character to the final line of the corresponding source file.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (5.1.1.2.2)
ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (2.1.2)

cc0002
Compiler Error: last line of file ends with a backslash
Description
The final line of a source file ends with a backslash character.
Severity
Error
Recovery
The compiler automatically ignores the trailing backslash character and continues.
Example
void f(void)
{
}\

How to Fix
Remove the trailing backslash character from the final line of the corresponding
source file.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (5.1.1.2.2)

cc0003

Compiler Error: #include file "xxxx" includes itself

Description
A header file has included itself more than once. In rare cases this practice can be
desirable in order to perform some clever tricks with the preprocessor. Including
itself more than eight times, however, probably indicates recursion.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
The two files in this example are: test.c and test.h.
test.h:
#include "test.h"
test.c:
#include "test.h"

How to Fix
Prevent the corresponding header file from including itself.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (5.2.4.1)
ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (B.2)

cc0004
Compiler Error: out of memory
Description
The compiler requires more system memory to perform the current compilation than
is currently available in the compilation environment.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
This error depends on the compilation environment. The error cannot normally be
reproduced with only an extract of a specific source file.
How to Fix
You can receive this error message when trying to compile a very large source file.
In this case, you can allocate more system memory for the compilation process or
you can split the source file into multiple smaller source files. This message can also
indicate an internal error within the compiler itself due to recursion, which should be
reported.
Related Information
See also your operating system's documentation about how to increase the amount
of system memory that can be made available for specific processes.

cc0005
Compiler Error: could not open source file "xxxx"

24

Description
The compiler could not read the contents of a source file or a header file.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
In this example, the header file test.h does not exist in the current directory or in
any of the directories in the include file search path.
#include "test.h"

How to Fix
Ensure that the compiler is being invoked with the filename of a source file that
really does exist, and that all the header files included by that source file exist in the
include file search path. If they do not, you must add the directory containing the
relevant header file to the include file search path with the -I option. You must also
have permission to read from all of these files.
Related Information
See also documentation for the -I option.

cc0006
Compiler Error: comment unclosed at end of file
Description:
A comment remains unclosed at the end of a source file. This description applies only
to C-style comments and not C++-style comments (which are terminated at the end
of a line).
Severity
Error
Recovery
The compiler automatically closes the comment and continues.
Example
/* this is an unclosed comment *

How to Fix
Ensure that the comment is closed at the proper source file location.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (5.1.1.2.3)
ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (2.1.3)

cc0007
Compiler Error: unrecognized token
Description
An illegal character has occurred within the source file. This error occurs only when
the offending character is encountered without a character constant, string literal,
header filename, or comment. The error generally indicates that the source file has
been corrupted in some way.

25

Severity
Error
Recovery
The compiler tries to ignore the illegal character and continues.
Example
/* the character to the left is illegal in C/C++ source */

How to Fix
Remove the offending character, or do one of the following:
If it is intended to be part of a character constant, string literal, or header
filename, put it in quotes.
If it is intended to be part of a comment, comment it out.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (5.2.1)
ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (2.2)

cc0008
Compiler Error: missing closing quote
Description
A string literal remains unclosed at the end of a source line.
Severity
Error
Recovery
The compiler automatically closes the string and continues.
Example
const char *str = "this is a string;

How to Fix
Ensure that the string is closed at the proper source file location. If the string
continues across several lines, place a backslash character at the end of the relevant
lines to indicate that the string is to continue at the start of the next line.
Related Information

ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (2.13.4)

cc0010
Compiler Error: "#" not expected here
Description
A "#" character appears outside of any preprocessing directive and not at the
beginning of a line.
Severity
Error
Recovery
The compiler tries to ignore the illegal character and continues.
Example

26

int num = #;

How to Fix
Remove the offending character, or ensure that it is associated with a preprocessing
directive if that was the original intention.
Related Information
ISO/IEC 9899:1990 "Programming Languages - C" (6.1.6)
ISO/IEC 14882:1998 "Programming Languages - C++" (16)

cc0013
Compiler Error: expected a file name
Description
Following the #include directive, the name of a file that can be processed by the
implementation is missing.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.

Compiler Error: integer conversion resulted in truncation
Description
The integral type being converted to is not large enough to hold the required value.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
Compiler issues the diagnostic and compilation continues.
Example
In the C/C++ Compiler : SHARC version 6.1.0, all integral types have the same
length, 32 bits. Therefore, this error cannot be reproduced with this compiler.
The following would reproduce the error if you use the Blackfin compiler.
void main(){
char c = 256L;
}

How to Fix
Ensure that the integral type being converted to is large enough to hold the value
being forced into it.

Compiler Error: this declaration has no storage class or specifier
Description
If the decl-specifiers are missing for a non-function declaration, an error is issued
in all modes.
If the decl-specifiers are missing for a function declaration in C mode, a warning is
generated.
If the decl-specifiers are missing for a function declaration in strict C mode, an
error is generated.
C++ function declarations are handled separately.
Severity
Error, if decl-specifiers are missing for:
A non-function declaration
A function declaration in strict C mode
Warning, if they are missing for a function declaration in C mode
Recovery
If an error is indicated, the compiler assumes an "int" storage class or type specifier
and continues.
If a warning is indicated, the compiler assumes an int as the return type and
compilation continues.
Example
/* The following declarations are made at file scope */
i; /* non-function declaration without a type specifier - Error */
int i; /* with a type specifier */
foo(); /* function declaration without decl-specifiers */
int foo(); /* with a decl-specifiers */

How to Fix
Add a storage class or specifier at the appropriate place in the source code.

Compiler Error: expected a type specifier
Description
An identifier in a new expression, was probably intended to be a type name. The
current identifier is not a type name. By default, the compiler finds anything
unexpected that does not appear to be a type specifier.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
If the intended type name is an identifier in a new expression, the compiler issues an
error and then pretends that the identifier is the type name.
If current identifier is not a type name, the compiler assumes that the undefined
identifier was intended to be a type name.
In the last case, the compiler cannot recover from the error.
Example
int main()
{
int x = 1;

50

extern x y; /* in the place of "x" a type identifier expected */

static x *z; /* as above */
}

How to Fix
Ensure that a type identifier is inserted at the appropriate place in the source code.

Compiler Error: invalid re-declaration of type name "entity" (declared at line
xxxx)
Description
The compiler encountered a type name that was already declared in the current
scope and name space. Note that in C++ it is legal to define a tag name and a nontag name in the same scope (7.1.3 xxxx). In pcc mode, a variable is allowed to hide
a function parameter. Also, typedef names can be re-declared as long as the
underlying type is the same.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
class A {};
class A {}; /* already declared in the current scope,
Error */
void main(){}

How to Fix
Re-declaring a type name in the same scope is illegal in C/C++, except in the
circumstances mentioned above. Replace the offending type name with a new type
name that was not used previously in the current scope.

Case 2 -

A::A(A, T=x);

Case 3 -

A::A(A&, A=y);

Case 4 -

A::A(A&, T=x, A=y);

Case 1. The type of the first parameter is identical to the type of the parent class.
Case 2. The second parameter has a default argument and the first argument is not
a reference to the parent class but is identical to the type of the parent class.
Cases 3 and 4. The type of this parameter is identical to the type of the parent
class.

Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
struct S {

How to Fix
Ensure that the type of the first parameter or any following parameters of the copy
constructor is not identical to the type of the parent class and also if the second
parameter has a default argument then the first parameter is not identical to the
parent class but a reference of it.

Compiler Error: initialization requiring a temporary or conversion is not
allowed
Description
A temporary was used as a template argument when the corresponding template
parameter was of reference type.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.

188

Example
template<const int& I> struct S{};
S<1> b; /* Error: temporary would be required
for template argument */
void main(){}

How to Fix
Do not use a temporary as a template argument when the corresponding template
parameter is of reference type. For example, the above example is corrected as
follows:
template<const int& I> struct S{};
int i = 1;
S<i> b;
void main(){}

Compiler Error: xxxx cannot cast away const or other type qualifiers
Description
A cast (reinterpret_cast, dynamic_cast or static_cast) casts away constness, which
means that the cast drops qualifiers.
Severity
Fatal error
Recovery
The compiler cannot recover from this error.
Example
struct S {
int s;
};
S os;
S *volatile vps = &os;
void main()

reinterpret_cast<S**>(&vps); /* reinterpret_cast cannot cast away
const or other type qualifiers */
}

How to Fix
The reinterpret_cast, dynamic_cast, and static_cast operators are not allowed to
throw away constness. Determine whether this rule is being violated. For instance, in
the example above the cast from X *volatile * to X** casts away constness since no
implicit conversion from int *volatile * to int** occurs.

cc1736
Compiler Remark: an inline asm statement with a memory clobber is being
used: try to avoid this as it will degrade optimization potential
Description
The compiler is commenting that an inline asm statement is being used, which has
memory specified in the clobber list. This can be counterproductive to optimization.
Replacing the asm statement with one that does not clobber memory by using the
normal inline asm outputs is preferable because the side-effects are less restrictive.
This is particularly important with inter-procedural analysis (IPA). If IPA were to
assume that an inline asm statement with a memory-clobber writes to all globals, then
including one such statement in a program would mean the value of any global could
not be determined (IPA is not flow-sensitive) and this would negate much of the
potential benefit that IPA provides. For this reason, the compiler does not make this
assumption. If the compiler encounters an inline asm statement with a memoryclobber when IPA is enabled, it will generate a warning instead of this remark
because the results may be unexpected. See cc1737.
Severity
Remark
Recovery
The compiler issues the remark when the -Wremarks switch is specified. It then
continues the compilation of the translation unit.
Examples
The file foo.c contains the following function with an inline asm statement:
Blackfin Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("p0.h = 0x9009; p0.l = 0x8008;
"p5.l = _glob; p5.h = _glob;
"[p5] = p0;

\n"
\n"
\n"

340

: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "p0", "p5", "memory"
);
}
int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

ccblkfn -O foo.c -Wremarks

SHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("r1 = 0x90098008;
"I1 = _glob;
"DM(0,I1) =r1;
: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "r1", "I1", "memory"
);
}

\n"
\n"
\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

cc21k -O foo.c -Wremarks

TigerSHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("k30 = 0x90098008;;
"[j31 + _glob] = k30;;
: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "k30", "memory"
);
}

\n"
\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

ccts -O foo.c -Wremarks

Produces:
"foo.c", line 43 (col. 4): cc1736: {D} remark: an inline asm statement
with a memory clobber is being used: try to avoid this as it will
degrade optimization potential

It is better practice to produce the value in the asm statement as an output, and
write the global variable in a C statement. This means that the write to the global
variable is not hidden from the compiler. For example:
Blackfin Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {

341

asm volatile("%0.h =
:
:
:
);

0x9009; %0.l = 0x8008;

"=d" (glob) /*o*/
/*I*/
/*C*/

\n"

}
int main(void) {
foo();
}

SHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("%0 = 0x90098008;
: "=r" (glob) /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/
);
}

\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

TigerSHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("%0 = 0x90098008;;
": "=k" (glob) /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/
);
}

\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

This is just an illustrative example. In this particular case, it would be preferable to

write the constant directly to the global entirely in C. However, the principle is the
same for examples where the value to be stored in the global has to be calculated by
the inline asm statement.
How to Fix
Replace the inline asm with one which does not require a memory clobber.

Compiler Warning: loop is not reachable from preceding code
Description
The current location in the code (the top of a loop) is unreachable. This message is
different from the normal "statement is unreachable" message, because the bodies
of loops can be reached via a branch from the bottom.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
After the warning, compilation continues.
Example
int main()
{
int i = 0;
return 0; /* program exits here */
while ( i <= 10 ){ /* This while loop is unreachable */
i++;
}
}

How to Fix:
Restructure your program to ensure that the unreachable code is processed, or
remove the code if it is not needed.

Compiler Warning: floating-point value does not fit in required integral type
Description
The floating point value is too big to fit in the integer.
Severity

351

Warning
Recovery
The compiler truncates the value, and compilation continues.
Example
This warning cannot be reproduced because in the SHARC compiler all integral types
have the same length, 32 bits. If the char had 8 bits, the statement below would
reproduce this warning:
char a = 1233445.o;

How to Fix
Ensure that the value being converted fits into the integer type. This correction does
not apply to the SHARC compiler, as all integral types have 32 bits.

Compiler Warning: entity-kind "entity" does not match "entity" - virtual
function override intended?

371

Description
A declaration in the derived class might have been intended to override a base class
virtual function, but did not. This occurrence is legal, but it might have been a
mistake.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compiler issues the warning in case the construct was a mistake, and
compilation continues.
Example
class B {
public:

};
class A : public B {
public:
void func(int); /* Warning: "void A::vf2(dm int) dm" does not match
"B::vf2" -- virtual function override intended?
*/

How to Fix
The only way to eliminate this warning is to remove the statement causing it.
Removal, however, is not necessary because the construct is perfectly legal. To
suppress warnings, the -w command line option.

Compiler warning: taking the address of a misaligned field is not
recommended
Description
An attempt has been made to take the address of a data member within a packed
class, structure, or union. The compiler can handle direct reads and writes from such
misaligned fields but cannot keep track of such operations if their addresses are
passed around via pointers.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compiler will take the address of the field. Be aware that all reads and writes to
that address are the responsibility of the user code and not of the compiler.
Example
#pragma pack(1)
struct A {char a; int b; } s;
int *p = &s.b;

399

How to Fix
If this is not intentional, allow the compiler to read and write to the field directly
without taking its address or consider using the provided misaligned intrinsic
functions when reading or writing to that address.
If this is intentional, you can temporarily suppress this message in the code by using
the diag() pragma.

Compiler warning: function declared with "noreturn" appears to return
Description
A noreturn pragma or GNU attribute was used to instruct the compiler that a function
never returns to its caller. However, the compiler found a control flow path that
appeared to lead to a return from the function.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compiler will honor the pragma, and therefore, despite appearances assume that
the function will never return.
Example
The following code fragments
void g(void);

400

#pragma noreturn
void f1(void) {
g();
}
volatile int a;
__attribute__((noreturn)) void f2(void) {
while (a != 0)
;
}

will give the warning

cc1635: {D} warning: function declared with "noreturn" appears to return

How to Fix
Remove the pragma if it is not valid. If it is valid, it may be possible to avoid the
warning by adding extra hints (e.g., /* NOTREACHED */) or noreturn pragmas to the
code.
The above examples may be changed to:
#pragma noreturn
void g(void);
#pragma noreturn
void f1(void) {
g();
}
volatile int a;
__attribute__((noreturn)) void f2(void) {

Compiler Warning: function f makes caller exceed speed/space ratio
inlining anyway
Description
This warning is raised if it has been explicitly requested that a function should be
inlined (with use of #pragma always_inline or the always-inline switch) and the
compiler has determined that performing the inlining operation at this call site
causes the code size of the calling function to increase such that the requested
speed/size optimization ratio is not satisfied.
Severity
Discretionary Warning
Recovery
Below, the inlining of function func into caller will not normally be performed where
the resulting size of caller is too large to satisfy the requested ratio. The pragma
directs the compiler to do so regardless, so the warning will be issued.
Example
#pragma always_inline
inline func() {
/* Some code */
}
void caller() {
/* Some code */

The compilation continues after the warning is issued.
Example
Below, the inlining of function big_func into caller will not normally be performed
where the size of big_func is too large to satisfy the requested optimization ratio.
The pragma directs the compiler to do so regardless, so the warning will be issued.
#pragma always_inline
inline big_func() {
/* Much code */

cc1658
Compiler Warning: address taken of function declared with user-defined
clobber set
Description
The warning is issued if the address of a function (which has a user-defined clobber
set) has been taken. This is because the compiler is unable to honor the defined
clobber set if a call is subsequently made to the function via a pointer. The
regs_clobbered_call pragma should be used in these circumstances.
Severity
Discretionary warning
Recovery
The compilation continues after the warning is issued.
Example

405

#pragma regs_clobbered "r0 r1 p1 p2"

int func() { /* some code */ }
void caller() {
int (*f)(void);
f = func; /* assigns the address of func and results in cc1658 */

How to Fix
Do not apply the regs_clobbered pragma to the declaration of a function if the
function's address is taken.

cc1661
Compiler Warning: enumeration value is greater than int type
Description
An enumeration containing a type that cannot be represented by an int will make
the compiler choose a different integer representation, for example long long.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
You can choose to ignore this if this is the behavior you desire. If you wish to restrict
the enum values to type int, then the -enum-is-int switch can be specified.
Example
enum fred{

};

How to Fix
Use the -enum-is-int switch.

cc1665
Compiler Warning: variable "iden" is possibly used before its value is set in
loop
Description
An uninitialized variable is used in a loop. Control flow is such that it is possible that
it is assigned later in the loop, hence the use of "possibly".
Severity
Discretionary warning
Recovery
If the warning genuinely shows the use of the variable before it has been assigned a
value, then the variable should be correctly initialized to avoid serious run-time
issues.
Example
void func()
{
int i;
int j = 0;

406

while (j
i += j; // i used before it has been set
}
}

How to Fix
Initialize the variable to an initial value.

Description
This warning is issued if the section directive is used on a class member definition,
not its declaration.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
After the warning, compilation continues.
Example
section("mysec")
class myclass {
int i;
int foo();

How to Fix
Place directive on class member definitions only. For example:
section("mysec")
int myclass::foo() {
return i;
};

cc1734
Compiler Warning: pragma regs_clobbered without "p1" can be inefficient.
Description
This warning is raised if a function has a user-defined clobber set which does not
contain register P1. The warning highlights a potential inefficiency due to the
possibility that register P1 is used by the linker for expanding CALL instructions
where the destination of the call is out of the range of the PC-relative call instruction.
Since it is not known at compile time whether this will be the case, a calling function
which uses P1 must save and restore the register (potentially unnecessarily) around
a call to a function which does not contain it in its clobber set.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compilation continues after the warning is issued.
Example
#pragma regs_clobbered "r0-r7 p0 p2-p5 astat"
int func(void)
{

407

/* Some code */
}

How to Fix
The warning can be resolved by adding P1 to the user-defined clobber set in
question. This would be beneficial if, having studied the generated executable, it was
found that the linker had not expanded the call to the function and therefore not
clobbered P1.

cc1737
Compiler Warning: an inline asm statement with a memory clobber is being
used with IPA: where possible try to avoid this. If this is not feasible, mark
any variables that may be written to as volatile; otherwise, unexpected
results may be obtained
Description
The compiler is commenting that an inline asm statement is being used which has
memory specified in the clobber list. This is particularly important with IPA enabled. If
IPA were to assume that an inline asm statement with a memory-clobber writes to all
globals, then including one such statement in a program would mean the value of
any global could not be determined (IPA is not flow-sensitive) and this would negate
much of the potential benefit that IPA provides.
For this reason, the compiler does not make this assumption. If the compiler
encounters an inline asm statement with a memory-clobber when IPA is enabled, it will
generate this warning.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compiler issues the warning and continues the compilation of the translation
unit. However, the results of the program execution may not be as expected.
Examples
The file foo.c contains the following function with an inline asm statement:
Blackfin Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("p0.h = 0x9009; p0.l = 0x8008;
"p5.l = _glob; p5.h = _glob;
"[p5] = p0;
: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "p0", "p5", "memory"
);
}

\n"
\n"
\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

408

ccblkfn -O foo.c -ipa

SHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("r1 = 0x90098008;
"I1 = _glob;
"DM(0,I1) =r1;
: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "r1", "I1", "memory"
);
}

\n"
\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

cc21k -O foo.c -ipa

TigerSHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("k30 = 0x90098008;;
"[j31 + _glob] = k30;;
: /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/ "k30", "memory"
);
}

\n"
\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

Invoking the compiler:

ccts -O foo.c -ipa

Produces:
"foo.c", line 43 (col. 4): cc1737: {D} warning: an inline asm statement
with a memory clobber is being used with IPA: where possible try to
avoid.
If this is not feasible, mark any variables
that may be written to as volatile.
Otherwise, unexpected results may be obtained.

It is better practice to produce the value in the asm statement as an output, and
write the global variable in a C statement. This means that the write to the global
variable is not hidden from the compiler. For example:
Blackfin Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("%0.h =
:
:
:
);
}

0x9009; %0.l = 0x8008;

"=d" (glob) /*o*/
/*I*/
/*C*/

\n"

409

int main(void) {
foo();
}

SHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("%0 = 0x90098008;
: "=r" (glob) /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/
);
}

\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

TigerSHARC Processors
int glob;
void foo(void) {
asm volatile("%0 = 0x90098008;;
": "=k" (glob) /*O*/
: /*I*/
: /*C*/
);
}

\n"

int main(void) {
foo();
}

This is just an illustrative example. In this particular case, it would be preferable to

write the constant directly to the global entirely in C. However, the principle is the
same for examples where the value to be stored in the global has to be calculated by
the inline asm statement.
How to Fix
Replace the inline asm with one which does not require a memory clobber. If this is
not possible, ensure that any variables that can in fact be written to by the inline asm
are marked as volatile.

cc1745
Compiler Warning: Externally defined variable ID, possibly used in
initialization before it has been constructed.
Description
An externally defined class object that requires a constructor is used in the
initialization of a static or external object.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compilation continues as normal after the warning is issued.
410

Example
class X{
public:
X();
int x;
};
class Y{
public:
Y(X*);
X x_memb;
};
extern X obj;
Y z(&obj); // obj possibly used before it is constructed.

How to Fix
One solution is to define obj in the same compilation unit and before the declaration
of z.

cc1746
Compiler Warning: Externally defined variable ID, possibly used in
constructor before it has been constructed.
Description
An externally defined class object requiring a constructor is used in the constructor
of another class, which potentially means a use before it has been constructed
results in this warning.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compilation continues as normal after the warning is issued.
Example
class X{
public:
X();
int x;
};
class Y{
public:
Y(X*);
X x_memb;
};
extern X obj;
Y::Y()
{
x_memb = obj; // obj may or not be constructed before
// construction of z
}
Y z;

411

How to Fix
One solution is to define obj in the same compilation unit and before the declaration
of z.

cc1749
Compiler Warning: alignment for local variable greater than stack alignment
Description
When #pragma align <num> is applied to local variables, then the alignment value
<num> must not be greater than the stack alignment. This warning indicates that
the specified alignment value is greater than the stack alignment, and that the
variable will have the default alignment for the data type size.
Severity
Warning
Recovery
The compilation continues after the warning is issued.
Examples
Examples are supplied for each processor family.
Blackfin Example
#pragma align 4
int x;
#pragma align 16
int y;
#pragma align 4
int global_array1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
#pragma align 8
int global_array2[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
int func()
{
#pragma align 4
int a = 2;
#pragma align 16 //
int b = 1;
#pragma align 4
int local_array1[5]
#pragma align 8 //
int local_array2[5]
}

alignment value greater than stack alignment

= {1,2,3,4,5};
alignment value greater than stack alignment
= {1,2,3,4,5};

SHARC Example
#pragma align 2
int x;
#pragma align 16
int y;
#pragma align 2
int global_array1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
#pragma align 8
int global_array2[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};

412

int func()
{
#pragma align 2
int a = 2;
#pragma align 16 // alignment value greater than stack alignment
int b = 1;
#pragma align 2
int local_array1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
#pragma align 8 // alignment value greater than stack alignment
int local_array2[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
}

TigerSHARC Example
#pragma align 4
int x;
#pragma align 16
int y;
#pragma align 4
int global_array1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
#pragma align 8
int global_array2[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
int func()
{
#pragma align 4
int a = 2;
#pragma align 16 // alignment value greater than stack alignment
int b = 1;
#pragma align 4
int local_array1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
#pragma align 8 // alignment value greater than stack alignment
int local_array2[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
}

How to Fix
Ensure that, when #pragma align is used for local variables, the alignment value
used is not greater than the stack alignment.
For Blackfin processors, this is 4 bytes.
For SHARC processors, this is 2 words.
For TigerSHARC processors, this is 4 words.

cc3146
Driver Error: Unrecognized silicon revision specified, supported revisions
are 1.0, 1.1, any, none. Reverting to 1.1.
Description
Attempt to invoke the driver with a silicon revision that is not supported.
Severity
Discretionary warning.
Recovery
The driver issues the warning. It then continues to check the flags passed to it,

413

displaying any other errors or warnings it comes across.

Example
ccblkfn BF533 -c++ test.cpp -silicon-revision 4.8

Issues the warning:

cc3146: {D} warning: Unrecognized silicon revision specified, supported
revisions are 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, any, none.
Reverting to 3.1.

How to Fix
Choose a valid silicon revision.
cc1138
Driver Error: illegal memory qualifier for auto or register variable
Description
Memory qualifiers pm and dm cannot be applied to local declarations.
Severity
Error
Recovery
The driver issues the error. It then continues to check the flags passed to it,
displaying any other errors or warnings it comes across. The driver then exits
without invoking any compilation.
Example
int pm global; /* global var is placed in pm memory */
void func()
{
int pm local; /* error local requires to be on the stack
so memory qualification is illegal. */
...
}

How to fix
Remove the memory qualification or make the declaration global.
