Be sure to work on Grendel, since we need to be in 32-bit mode, and we need both the C-compiler and the assembler to be compatible. They are not when we work on Beowulf.

Problem #1: Pascal's Triangle with Functions

• Use the same setup as for Homework 5. In particular you will need
  • asm_io.asm
  • asm_io.inc
  • driver.c
  • lab7skel.asm , a skeleton program that will eventually contain your code

• Use a Makefile to make your executable. Call it Makefile with an uppercase M. It assumes that your assembly program is going to be called lab7.asm. If you are using a different file name, then change the PROG line in the make file.

CC = gcc
LD = gcc
NASM = nasm 

CFLAGS =  -c
LFLAGS = 
NASMFLAGS = -f elf -F stabs

PROG = lab7

OBJS = asm_io.o $(PROG).o driver.o


default: $(PROG)

$(PROG): $(OBJS) 
	$(LD) $(LFLAGS) $(OBJS)  -o $(PROG)

asm_io.o: asm_io.asm
	$(NASM) $(NASMFLAGS) asm_io.asm

$(PROG).o: $(PROG).asm asm_io.inc
	$(NASM) $(NASMFLAGS) $(PROG).asm

driver.o: driver.c 
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) driver.c

clean:
	rm -rf *.o *~

real_clean:
	 rm -rf *.o $(PROG) *~

Note: In Makefiles, make sure that the lines that do not start at the left-most margin start with a Tab character, not a space.

• Before coding anything, verify that you have valid components for your program. At the prompt, type

     make

and you should get an executable called lab7. Run it:

     ./lab7

verify that you do not get any errors (it won't print anything).
