Bug ID: 64541 Summary: .fre1 pass optimization failure Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: tree-optimization Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: skvadrik at gmail dot com Created attachment 34403 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=34403&action=edit 1.c 2.c 1.c.028t.esra 2.c.028t.esra 1.c.030t.fre1 2.c.030t.fre1 1.s 2.s compile_gcc.sh Files 1.c and 2.c in attach are equivalent from C/C++ standpoint: $ diff 1.c 2.c 3c3,5 < return *(*q = ++*p); --- > ++*p; > *q = *p; > return **p; Compiled with gcc-5.0.0, disassembled with objdump (GNU Binutils) 2.24 (see full script compile_gcc.sh in attach). For 1.c gcc generates better code than for 2.c (compare 1.s vs 2.s in attach). I looked at GIMPLE optimization dumps (-fdump-tree-all) and found that up to *.029t.ealias pass dumps differ insignificantly (attached *.028t.esra dumps as they are shorter), but .030t.fre1 pass fails to reduce intermediate variable '_9' in the second case (attached *.030t.fre dumps). Looks like a bug in full redundancy elimination.
