Yibo Cai created ARROW-15461: -------------------------------- Summary: [C++] arrow-utility-test fails with clang-12 (TestCopyAndReverseBitmapPreAllocated) Key: ARROW-15461 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15461 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Bug Components: C++ Reporter: Yibo Cai
Unit test {{BitUtilTests.TestCopyAndReverseBitmapPreAllocated}} failed if release build arrow with clang-12, on both x86 and Arm. Per my debug, it's related to {{GetReversedBlock}} function [1], when right shift a uint8 value by 8 bits. I think it's a compiler bug. From the test code [2], clang-12 returns 1, which is wrong. clang-11 and clang-13 both return 2, the correct answer. Looks clang-12 over optimized the code, there should be no UB in the code (uint8 is promoted to integer before shift). A workaround is to treat shifting 8 bits as a special case. Or we can simply ignore this error if the compiler bug is confirmed (I didn't find clang bug report).
