Summary: [4.6 regression] constant propogation and compile-time
math no longer happening versus 4.4 and 4.5
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: middle-end
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: m...@use.net
For the following code:
#include <stdio.h>
typedef unsigned char(*Calculable)(void);
static unsigned char one() { return 1; }
static unsigned char two() { return 2; }
static void print(Calculable calculate)
{
printf("%d\n", calculate());
printf("+1: %d\n", calculate() + 1);
}
int main()
{
print(one);
print(two);
return 0;
}
GCC 4.4 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) and 4.5(Ubuntu/Linaro 4.5.1-7ubuntu2),
when using -O3 on amd64 using Ubuntu 10.10's packages, produce the following
code:
00000000004005a0 <main>:

where the constants are correctly propogated and the compile-time math occurs.
With Ubuntu 10.10's gcc-snapshot of 4.6 (Ubuntu 20101004-0ubuntu1) or an
alternate 4.6 version (Sourcery G++ 2010.09-31), neither of these things
happens, even with -fwhole-program:
