Bug ID: 101548 Summary: dependence analysis fails with .MASK_STORE Product: gcc Version: 12.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: tree-optimization Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- We fail to vectorize (with -fno-trapping-math in case COND_ADD is not available) double a[1024], b[1024]; void foo () { for (int i = 0; i < 1024; ++i) if (b[i] < 3.) a[i] += b[i]; } the loop is if-converted to <bb 3> [local count: 1063004409]: # i_13 = PHI <i_9(7), 0(15)> # ivtmp_6 = PHI <ivtmp_4(7), 1024(15)> _1 = b[i_13]; _2 = a[i_13]; _3 = _1 + _2; _24 = _1 < 3.0e+0; _25 = &a[i_13]; .MASK_STORE (_25, 64B, _24, _3); i_9 = i_13 + 1; ivtmp_4 = ivtmp_6 - 1; if (ivtmp_4 != 0) goto <bb 7>; [98.99%] else goto <bb 6>; [1.01%] but then dependence analysis fails: (compute_affine_dependence ref_a: b[i_13], stmt_a: _1 = b[i_13]; ref_b: *_25, stmt_b: .MASK_STORE (_25, 64B, _24, _3); ) -> no dependence (compute_affine_dependence ref_a: a[i_13], stmt_a: _2 = a[i_13]; ref_b: *_25, stmt_b: .MASK_STORE (_25, 64B, _24, _3); ) -> dependence analysis failed t3.c:7:12: missed: versioning for alias required: can't determine dependence between a[i_13] and *_25 consider run-time aliasing test between a[i_13] and *_25 and then t3.c:5:21: note: === vect_prune_runtime_alias_test_list === t3.c:5:21: note: can tell at compile time that a[i_13] and *_25 alias t3.c:7:12: missed: not vectorized: compilation time alias: _2 = a[i_13]; .MASK_STORE (_25, 64B, _24, _3); and we give up. But the may-dependence does not prevent vectorization.
