Bug ID: 109585 Summary: Carla/sord miscompiled with -O2 on ARM64 (inlining issue) Product: gcc Version: 12.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: hector at marcansoft dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 54900 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=54900&action=edit Manually annotated disassembly identifying the problem GCC 12.1.0 miscompiles sord_free() with -O2 due to bad inlining on ARM64. Reproducible on Compiler Explorer on 12.2 and also trunk. https://godbolt.org/z/rvxP1oodh (includes full preprocessed input) I've attached an annotated disassembly. The problem is that zix_btree_iter_increment() and zix_btree_iter_is_end() are inlined together into sord_free(), but the `i->stack[0].node == NULL` check in zix_btree_iter_is_end() somehow got hoisted before the `f->node = NULL;` in zix_btree_iter_increment(), so the check fails when it pass (ending the loop), and then the loop body goes on to deref a NULL pointer.
