I don't see anything in the IL that could be used to prove the uninitialized variable isn't used: a_3 is uninitialized when b_6 != 0 || x == 0, and a_3 is used when b_2 == 0 && c_9 == 0. The two predicates aren't mutually exclusive so the warning triggers. $ cat pr84078.c && gcc -O2 -S -Wall -fdump-tree-uninit=/dev/stdout pr84078.c int x, z; int f (void); void g (int b) { int a; if (!b) { if (x) a = x; else b = 1; } { int c; __asm __volatile("" : "=r" (c)); if (c) f (); } if (b) return; z = a; } ;; Function g (g, funcdef_no=0, decl_uid=1947, cgraph_uid=1, symbol_order=2) [AFTER NORMALIZATION -- [DEF]: (.NOT.) b_6(D) == 0 [AFTER NORMALIZATION -- [DEF]: a_3 = PHI <a_7(D)(10), x.0_1(11), a_7(D)(4)> is guarded by : x.0_1 != 0 (.AND.) b_6(D) == 0 [AFTER NORMALIZATION -- [USE]: z = a_3; is guarded by : (.NOT.) b_2 != 0 pr84078.c: In function ‘g’: pr84078.c:27:5: warning: ‘a’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] 27 | z = a; | ~~^~~ pr84078.c:7:7: note: ‘a’ was declared here 7 | int a; | ^ void g (int b) { int c; int a; int x.0_1; <bb 2> [local count: 1073741824]: if (b_6(D) == 0) goto <bb 3>; [50.00%] else goto <bb 10>; [50.00%] <bb 10> [local count: 536870912]: goto <bb 5>; [100.00%] <bb 3> [local count: 536870913]: x.0_1 = x; if (x.0_1 != 0) goto <bb 11>; [50.00%] else goto <bb 4>; [50.00%] <bb 11> [local count: 268435457]: goto <bb 5>; [100.00%] <bb 4> [local count: 268435457]: <bb 5> [local count: 1073741824]: # b_2 = PHI <b_6(D)(10), 0(11), 1(4)> # a_3 = PHI <a_7(D)(10), x.0_1(11), a_7(D)(4)> __asm__ __volatile__("" : "=r" c_9); if (c_9 != 0) goto <bb 6>; [33.00%] else goto <bb 12>; [67.00%] <bb 12> [local count: 719407024]: goto <bb 7>; [100.00%] <bb 6> [local count: 354334800]: f (); <bb 7> [local count: 1073741824]: if (b_2 != 0) goto <bb 13>; [34.00%] else goto <bb 8>; [66.00%] <bb 13> [local count: 365072224]: goto <bb 9>; [100.00%] <bb 8> [local count: 708669601]: z = a_3; <bb 9> [local count: 1073741824]: return; }
