(I'm working on rebasing the patch on top of the latest trunk which
has changed some of the same code but it'd be helpful to get a go-
ahead on substance the changes.  I don't expect the rebase to
require any substantive modifications.)

-Wplacement-new handles array indices and pointer offsets the same:

In addition, the warning doesn't even attempt to handle arrays of
arrays.  I'm not sure if I forgot or if I simply didn't think of
it.

The attached patch corrects these oversights by replacing most
of the -Wplacement-new code with a call to compute_objsize which
handles all this correctly (plus more), and is also better tested.
But even compute_objsize has bugs: it trips up while converting
wide_int to offset_int for some pointer offset ranges.  Since
handling the C++ IL required changes in this area the patch also
fixes that.

For review purposes, the patch affects just the middle end.
The C++ diff pretty much just removes code from the front end.

The C++ changes are OK.

Thank you for looking at the rest as well.

This reformatting seems unnecessary, and I prefer to keep the
comment about the default argument.

This overload doesn't take a default argument.  (There was a stray
declaration of a similar function at the top of the file that had
one.  I've removed it.)

Ah, true.

You change some failure cases in compute_objsize to return
success with a maximum range, while others continue to return
failure. This needs commentary about the design rationale.

This is too much for a comment in the code but the background is
this: compute_objsize initially returned the object size as a
constant.
Recently, I have enhanced it to return a range to improve warnings
for
allocated objects.  With that, a failure can be turned into
success by
having the function set the range to that of the largest object.
That
should simplify the function's callers and could even improve
the detection of some invalid accesses.  Once this change is made
it might even be possible to change its return type to void.

The change that caught your eye is necessary to make the function
a drop-in replacement for the C++ front end code which makes this
same assumption.  Without it, a number of test cases that exercise
VLAs fail in g++.dg/warn/Wplacement-new-size-5.C.  For example:

    void f (int n)
    {
      char a[n];
      new (a - 1) int ();
    }

Changing any of the other places isn't necessary for existing tests
to pass (and I didn't want to introduce too much churn).  But I do
want to change the rest of the function along the same lines at some
point.

Please do change the other places to be consistent; better to have
more churn than to leave the function half-updated.  That can be a
separate patch if you prefer, but let's do it now rather than later.

I've made most of these changes in the other patch (also attached).
I'm quite happy with the result but it turned out to be a lot more
work than either of us expected, mostly due to the amount of testing.

I've left a couple of failing cases in place mainly as reminders
to handle them better (which means I also didn't change the caller
to avoid testing for failures).  I've also added TODO notes with
reminders to handle some of the new codes more completely.


+  special_array_member sam{ };

sam is always set by component_ref_size, so I don't think it's
necessary to initialize it at the declaration.

I find initializing pass-by-pointer local variables helpful but
I don't insist on it.

This change seems to violate the comment for the function.

By my reading (and writing) the change is covered by the first
sentence:

     Returns the size of the object designated by DECL considering
     its initializer if it either has one or if it would not affect
     its size, ...

OK, I see it now.

It handles a number of cases in Wplacement-new-size.C fail that
construct a larger object in an extern declaration of a template,
like this:

    template <class> struct S { char c; };
    extern S<int> s;

    void f ()
    {
      new (&s) int ();
    }

I don't know why DECL_SIZE isn't set here (I don't think it can
be anything but equal to TYPE_SIZE, can it?) and other than struct
objects with a flexible array member where this identity doesn't
hold I can't think of others.  Am I missing something?

Good question.  The attached patch should fix that, so you
shouldn't need the change to decl_init_size:

I've integrated it into the bug fix.

Besides the usual x86_64-linux bootstrap/regtest I tested both
patches by building a few packages, including Binutils/GDB, Glibc,
and  verifying no new warnings show up.

+offset_int
+access_ref::size_remaining (offset_int *pmin /* = NULL */) const

For the various member functions, please include the comments with the
definition as well as the in-class declaration.

Only one access_ref member function is defined out-of-line:
offset_bounded().  I've adjusted the comment and copied it above
the function definition.


+      if (offrng[1] < offrng[0])

What does it mean for the max offset to be less than the min offset?  I
wouldn't expect that to ever happen with wide integers.

The offset is represented in sizetype with negative values represented
as large positive values, but has to be converted to ptrdiff_t.  These
cases come up when the unsigned offset is an ordinary range that
corresponds to an anti-range, such as here:

    extern char a[2];

    void f (unsigned long i)
    {
      if (i == 0)
        return;
      a[i] = 0;   // i's range is [1, -1] (i.e., [1, SIZE_MAX]
    }


+  /* Return true if OFFRNG is bounded to a subrange of possible offset
+     values.  */
+  bool offset_bounded () const;

I don't understand how you're using this.  The implementation checks for
the possible offset values falling outside those representable by
ptrdiff_t, unless the range is only a single value.  And then the only
use is

+  if (ref.offset_zero () || !ref.offset_bounded ())
+    inform (DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION (ref.ref),
+        "%qD declared here", ref.ref);
+  else if (ref.offrng[0] == ref.offrng[1])
+    inform (DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION (ref.ref),
+        "at offset %wi from %qD declared here",
+        ref.offrng[0].to_shwi (), ref.ref);
+  else
+    inform (DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION (ref.ref),
+        "at offset [%wi, %wi] from %qD declared here",
+        ref.offrng[0].to_shwi (), ref.offrng[1].to_shwi (), ref.ref);

So if the possible offsets are all representable by ptrdiff_t, we don't
print the range?  The middle case also looks unreachable, since
offset_bounded will return false in that case.

The function was originally named "offset_unbounded."  I changed
it to "offset_bounded" but looks like I didn't finish the job or
add any tests for it.

The goal of conditionals is to avoid overwhelming the user with
excessive numbers that may not be meaningful or even relevant
to the warning.  I've corrected the function body, tweaked and
renamed the get_range function to get_offset_range to do a better
job of extracting ranges from the types of some nonconstant
expressions the front end passes it, and added a new test for
all this.  Attached is the new revision.

Hi Martin,

One of t new tests fails on many arm configurations and on aarch64
FAIL: gcc.dg/Wstringop-overflow-47.c  (test for warnings, line 29)
FAIL: gcc.dg/Wstringop-overflow-47.c  (test for warnings, line 32)
FAIL: gcc.dg/Wstringop-overflow-47.c  (test for warnings, line 37)

It looks like it is also failing on x86, s390 and ia64 according to
gcc-testresults.

Can you check?

Yes, I'm tracking the problem in pr97027, but I didn't realize
the test was susceptible to this dependency when I wrote it.  It
could be adjusted to avoid the missing warnings but the right fix
is to improve the detection.  Let me see if I can quickly handle
the latter.  In not, I'll constrain the test to just the targets
where I know is passes.

Thanks
Martin
