GAS: JMP instruction incorrect?


I have this assembly code:

jit_out.s

movq $0x1, %rax
jmp f1
movq $0xf000000101db3fb1, %rsi
push %rsi
movq $0x101db3ed8, %rax
addq $8, %rsp
ret
f1:
movq $0x101db3fb0, %rax
movq $0x1, %rax
ret

Running as -v < /dev/null gives:

Apple Inc version cctools-862, GNU assembler version 1.38

Running as jit_out.s -o jit_out.o and objdump -D jit_out.o returns:

jit_out.o:     file format mach-o-x86-64


Disassembly of section .text:

    0000000000000000 <f1-0x26>:
   0:   48 c7 c0 01 00 00 00    mov    $0x1,%rax
   7:   e9 00 00 00 00          jmpq   c <f1-0x1a>
   c:   48 be b1 3f db 01 01    movabs $0xf000000101db3fb1,%rsi
  13:   00 00 f0 
  16:   56                      push   %rsi
  17:   48 b8 d8 3e db 01 01    movabs $0x101db3ed8,%rax
  1e:   00 00 00 
  21:   48 83 c4 08             add    $0x8,%rsp
  25:   c3                      retq   

0000000000000026 <f1>:
  26:   48 b8 b0 3f db 01 01    movabs $0x101db3fb0,%rax
  2d:   00 00 00 
  30:   48 c7 c0 01 00 00 00    mov    $0x1,%rax
  37:   c3                      retq   

The bit that is confusing me is this line:

  7:    e9 00 00 00 00          jmpq   c <f1-0x1a>

Why does it jump to location c (the next instruction?) rather than 26, have I read that correctly?


Solution

  • Turns out using as -L on OSX fixes up the relocation!
