Nathan Sidwell <nathan at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |nathan at gcc dot gnu.org --- Comment #7 from Nathan Sidwell <nathan at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The change in debug generation causes purtabations in when GC happens. Such that in onecase we find a cached result, and in the other case we do not. When we don't we end up here: 0 allocate_decl_uid () at ../../../src/gcc/tree.c:990 #1 0x0000000001362a01 in copy_node_stat (node=0x7ffff6093e10) at ../../../src/gcc/tree.c:1157 #2 0x00000000010f1a97 in copy_decl_no_change (decl=0x7ffff6093e10, id=0x7fffffffb120) at ../../../src/gcc/tree-inline.c:5444 #3 0x00000000010e0ebe in remap_decl (decl=0x7ffff6093e10, id=0x7fffffffb120) at ../../../src/gcc/tree-inline.c:357 #4 0x00000000010f45fe in copy_fn (fn=0x7ffff6168c40, parms=@0x7ffff6683a28: 0x0, result=@0x7ffff6683a30: 0xafafafafafafafaf) at ../../../src/gcc/tree-inline.c:6148 #5 0x00000000009ec170 in get_fundef_copy (fun=0x7ffff6168c40) at ../../../src/gcc/cp/constexpr.c:1021 copy_node_stat allocates a new UID for decls. so despite its name 'copy_decl_no_change' does cause a change. That decl never escapes out of the const-expr machinery, but of cause causes later decls to have different numberings. (which is what we're observing). I suppose the constexpr machinery could restore the next_decl_uid (and perhaps others?) after copy_fn -- or somewhere in that call chain. But that does seem rather icky. Alternatively copy_decl_no_change could not allocate new UIDs? Anyway, hope that helps. For reference, the difference happens with a call to finish_return_stmt at parser.c:11808 when input_location == 17095968. We eventually end up in cxx_eval_call_expression where the call: constexpr_call **slot = constexpr_call_table->find_slot (&new_call, INSERT); (line 1433) finds a non-empty slot in one case and not in the other. (constexpr_call_table is a deletable hash)
