Dmitry, can you check this? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-16 05:54:12] anton at samba dot org To clarify... the Zend code reads via zval *, not long *. The cut down test case I submitted was simplified to use a long *. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-16 03:20:35] anton at samba dot org I can't work out how to attach things in this tool.

The following function reads from p via long * and stores to p via void * which violates aliasing rules: static inline void zend_ptr_stack_clear_multiple(TSRMLS_D) { void **p = EG(argument_stack).top_element-2; int delete_count = (int)(zend_uintptr_t) *p; EG(argument_stack).top -= (delete_count+2); while (--delete_count>=0) { zval *q = *(zval **)(--p); *p = NULL; zval_ptr_dtor(&q); } EG(argument_stack).top_element = p; } More details can be found at: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37824 We can remove the (zval **) cast so that we read and write via void *p and fix the aliasing issue. I will attach a patch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46311&edit=1
