------- Comment #1 from guillaume dot melquiond at ens-lyon dot fr 2007-01-04 10:15 ------- Is it really a middle-end issue?
It could also be seen as a front-end issue, as it does produce "a + b - 40", doesn't it? If the front-end had given "(a - 20) + (b - 20)" to the middle-end, then the correct ranges would have been computed. When adjusting the testcase in such a way, GCC does generate correct code: int f(int a, int b) { if (a > 0x7FFFFFF0) return 0; if (b > 0x7FFFFFF0) return 0; int d = a - 20; int e = b - 20; int c = d + e; return c > 0x7FFFFFF0; } -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30364
