arm32 cross compiling giving compiling error in right assembly code

254 views Asked by At

So, I need to run a certain arm32 code that I've done. The code is alright and running on my Windows machine using Keil, however when I try to run on the Ubuntu cross compiler (using arm-linux-gnueabihf-as prgm1.s -o asm32.o && arm-linux-gnueabihf-ld -static asm32.o -o asm32) for arm32 it gives a lot of syntax errors. I think maybe I'm running on the wrong architecture, but I simply cannot find the right one. On Keil the device that I've chose to run was LPC2104. Is there any device specifications in the Ubuntu cross compiler? Or another program I can use to run it? The code and errors goes as following:

AREA prgm1, CODE, READONLY 
        ENTRY

main    MOV R1, #2
        BL func1
        MOV R9, R8 ;MOV F(2) into R9
        MOV R1, #5
        BL func1
        
                
stop    B stop

func2   MUL R2, R6, R3 ;Multiplies bk with x0
        ADD R0, R5, R2 ;Adds the results of the previous line with ak-1
        BX LR ;Output Value


func1   MOV R6, #1 ;MOV the first coefficient into R6
        MOV R5, #3 ;MOV the second coefficient into R5
        MOV R3, R1 ;MOV the input to R3
        PUSH{LR} ;Pushes back to the main
        BL func2 ;Call function to output
        MOV R6, R0 ;MOV the ouput value to R6
        MOV R5, #5 ;Third Coefficient
        BL func2 
        MOV R6, R0
        MOV R5, #7
        BL func2
        MOV R6, R0
        MOV R5, #9
        BL func2
        MOV R8, R0
        POP{LR} ;POP LR from the stack 
        BX LR
        END

And the error (sorry, I don't know how to change it to english):

Assembly language is specific to the tool (gas, armasm, etc) not the target (ARM). These are different and incompatible programming languages.

Probably just get rid of this or look for an alternative.

AREA prgm1, CODE, READONLY 
        ENTRY



main    MOV R1, #2
        BL func1
        MOV R9, R8 ;MOV F(2) into R9
        MOV R1, #5
        BL func1

Labels must have a colon. Gas, uses @ for a comment rather than the one used by most assembly languages ;

main:    MOV R1, #2
        BL func1
        MOV R9, R8 ;@MOV F(2) into R9
        MOV R1, #5
        BL func1

I like to put ;@ and it works for both or at least your text editor might be happier.

That will cover maybe all of the issues here. Maybe .end instead of end or just comment it out.

The labels are assumed local unless you declare them global

.globl main
...
main:

Likewise you want to declare it a function.

.globl main
.type main, %function
...
main:

So that it links right. And as with the other assemblers you need to specify the target architecture (armv4t, armv6-m, armv7-a, etc). And if you are using the unified syntax

.syntax unified

somewhere up top (likewise .thumb as needed)
