From e795000e755c309d1f9bd2a0590eca38b4625f3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Pitre Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2025 15:22:44 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] mul_u64_u64_div_u64: fix the division-by-zero behavior MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The current implementation forces a compile-time 1/0 division, which generates an undefined instruction (ud2 on x86) rather than a proper runtime division-by-zero exception. Change to trigger an actual div-by-0 exception at runtime, consistent with other division operations. Use a non-1 dividend to prevent the compiler from optimizing the division into a comparison.
