There was a problem in GCC when I added some inline assembly.


as: BFD (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.22 assertion fail ../../bfd/elf.c:6715
as: BFD (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.22 internal error, aborting at ../../bfd/elfcode.h line 229 in bfd_elf32_swap_symbol_out

as: Please report this bug.

inline assembly:


__asm__(
                "movl $(%ebx+4), %eax;" /* getting the operand in %eax */
                "movl $0, %ebx;" /* ebx is the counter iand initializing it */
        "_start:"
                "cmpl $0, %eax;"
                "jz _final ;" /* if the comparison is 0 then jump to _final label */
                "movl %eax, %ecx;"
                "andl $1, %ecx;"
                "cmpl $0, %ecx;"
                "jz _skipadd;"
                "addl $1, %ebx;"   /* if the last bit is set increment the counter */

        "_skipadd:"
                "shrl $1, %eax;" /* dividing the number by 2 */
                "jmp _start;"

        "_final:"            /* final location */
                /* now we have to restore the registers */
                "movl %eax, %ebx;"   /* storing the result in %eax */
                "ret;"
 );
