APM compilation fails under 2.1.120 w/ quite old binutils [I
know I am to blame here, but just FYI]. It complains in statements
like this [compiled to assembler apm_bios.c]:
#APP
pushfl
cli
pushl %ds
pushl %es
> movw %ebx, %ds
> movw %ebx, %es
> movw %ebx, %fs
> movw %ebx, %gs
lcall %cs:apm_bios_entry
movl $0, %edi
jnc 1f
movl $1, %edi
1: popl %es
popl %ds
popfl
With errors [a lot more]:
/tmp/apm.s:193: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction
/tmp/apm.s:194: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction
/tmp/apm.s:195: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction
/tmp/apm.s:196: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction
Kernel 2.1.120, Debian 1.3.1 gcc 2.7.2.1, binutils
cygnus-2.7.1 (with BFD 2.7.0.9).
