Bug ID: 100086 Summary: spurious -Wnonnull with __builtin_expect Product: gcc Version: 11.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: tree-optimization Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: msebor at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- The following has been reduced from Red Hat bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1948775. In the original code the warning points to the this pointer in a call to a member function (which first became subject to the warning in GCC 11) but the same issue can be reproduced with any other nonnull function such as the call to __builtin_puts(0B) in the IL. Replacing the __builtin_expect call with a plain test avoids the warning, as does removing the indirection via AssertionResult. $ cat rhbz1948775.C && gcc -O2 -S -Wall -fdump-tree-post_ipa_warn=/dev/stdout rhbz1948775.C struct string { char *p; }; string GetMessage(); struct AssertionResult { AssertionResult (bool b) : b_(b) { } operator bool() const { return b_; } bool b_; }; struct AssertHelper { AssertHelper (const char*); void operator=(int); }; struct RefPtr { ~RefPtr() { if (__builtin_expect ((p != 0), 1)) __builtin_puts (p); } operator bool() const { return !!p; } char *p; }; RefPtr take (); void TestBody () { RefPtr emptyTake = take (); if (!AssertionResult (!emptyTake)) return AssertHelper(GetMessage().p) = 1; } ;; Function TestBody (_Z8TestBodyv, funcdef_no=8, decl_uid=2417, cgraph_uid=9, symbol_order=8) In destructor ‘RefPtr::~RefPtr()’, inlined from ‘void TestBody()’ at rhbz1948775.C:43:1: rhbz1948775.C:26:22: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull] 26 | __builtin_puts (p); | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~ rhbz1948775.C: In function ‘void TestBody()’: rhbz1948775.C:26:22: note: in a call to built-in function ‘int __builtin_puts(const char*)’ void TestBody () { struct RefPtr emptyTake; struct string D.2464; struct AssertHelper D.2492; bool _1; char * _2; char * _14; bool _15; char * _16; bool _17; long int _18; long int _19; long int _20; long int _21; char * _22; bool _23; long int _24; long int _25; <bb 2> [local count: 1073741824]: emptyTake = take (); [return slot optimization] _14 = emptyTake.p; _15 = _14 != 0B; _1 = _14 == 0B; if (_1 != 0) goto <bb 9>; [79.76%] else goto <bb 3>; [20.24%] <bb 3> [local count: 217325344]: D.2464 = GetMessage (); <bb 4> [local count: 217325344]: _2 = D.2464.p; AssertHelper::AssertHelper (&D.2492, _2); <bb 5> [local count: 217325344]: AssertHelper::operator= (&D.2492, 1); <bb 6> [local count: 217325344]: D.2492 ={v} {CLOBBER}; _16 = emptyTake.p; _17 = _16 != 0B; _18 = (long int) _17; _19 = _18; if (_19 != 0) goto <bb 7>; [90.00%] else goto <bb 8>; [10.00%] <bb 7> [local count: 195592809]: __builtin_puts (_16); <bb 8> [local count: 217325344]: emptyTake ={v} {CLOBBER}; emptyTake ={v} {CLOBBER}; goto <bb 12>; [100.00%] <bb 9> [local count: 856416481]: _20 = (long int) _15; _21 = _20; if (_21 != 0) goto <bb 10>; [90.00%] else goto <bb 11>; [10.00%] <bb 10> [local count: 770774832]: __builtin_puts (0B); <<< -Wnonnull <bb 11> [local count: 856416481]: emptyTake ={v} {CLOBBER}; emptyTake ={v} {CLOBBER}; <bb 12> [local count: 1073741824]: return; <bb 13> [count: 0]: <L8>: D.2492 ={v} {CLOBBER}; _22 = emptyTake.p; _23 = _22 != 0B; _24 = (long int) _23; _25 = _24; if (_25 != 0) goto <bb 14>; [0.00%] else goto <bb 15>; [0.00%] <bb 14> [count: 0]: __builtin_puts (_22); <bb 15> [count: 0]: emptyTake ={v} {CLOBBER}; resx 2 }
