Bug ID: 114277 Summary: Missed optimization: x*(x||b) => x Product: gcc Version: 14.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: tree-optimization Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: 652023330028 at smail dot nju.edu.cn Target Milestone: --- Hello, we noticed that the code below can be optimized as stated in the title (x*(x||b) => x), but gcc -O3 missed it. https://godbolt.org/z/W8xYrGdej int a,b; void func(int x){ a=x*(x||b); } GCC -O3: func(int): mov eax, edi or eax, DWORD PTR b[rip] mov eax, 0 cmove edi, eax mov DWORD PTR a[rip], edi ret Expected code: func(int): mov DWORD PTR a[rip], edi ret Surprisingly, GCC optimizes as expected for the following slightly more complex code: int c; void func2(int x){ a=x*(x||(b&&c)); } func2(int): mov DWORD PTR a[rip], edi ret Thank you very much for your time and effort! We look forward to hearing from you.
