            Bug ID: 98482
           Summary: -mfentry creates invalid call for -mcmodel=large
           Product: gcc
           Version: 10.2.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: toiwoton at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

GCC on x86_64 with `-mfentry` generates invalid code for `-mcmodel=large`. The
call to `__fentry__` uses plain `call` instruction, but this can only address
locations within 32 bit range while the target may be anywhere in the 64 bit
range due to `-mcmodel=large`.

The expected code would be something which loads a 64 bit value to a register
and then uses register indirect call, so instead of
        call    __fentry__
there needs to be
        movabsq $__fentry__, %rax
        call    *%rax

$ gcc -v
