Bug ID: 95729
Summary: Failure to optimize away certain returns when the
condition to reach them is a calculation that already
results in that value
Product: gcc
Version: 11.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: tree-optimization
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: gabravier at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
int f(int a, int b)
{
if (a != b)
return a - b;
else
return 0;
}
This can be optimized to `return a - b;`. This optimization is done by LLVM,
but not by GCC.
