            Bug ID: 30426
           Summary: gas x86: reject {call,jmp} [offset func] in Intel
                    syntax
           Product: binutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: i at maskray dot me
  Target Milestone: ---

% cat a.s
call [offset func]
jmp [offset func]
% as -msyntax=intel a.s -o a.o
% objdump -M intel -dr a.o

a.o:     file format elf64-x86-64


Disassembly of section .text:

0000000000000000 <.text>:
   0:   e8 00 00 00 00          call   0x5
                        1: R_X86_64_PLT32       func-0x4
   5:   e9 00 00 00 00          jmp    0xa
                        6: R_X86_64_PLT32       func-0x4


MSVC ml64.exe reports "error A2023:instruction operand must have size"
for the following assembly listing

  extrn k:proc
  _text segment
  call [offset k]
  ; call qword ptr [offset k]  ; this is somehow accepted
  _text ends
  end


This is a patch for LLVM integrated assembler (used by `clang -c -masm=intel`,
llvm-mc, etc) to reject call [offset k] and jmp [offset k]:
