--- Comment #5 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by David Malcolm <dmalc...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:cc68ad87014a331399ccb2528db3bf47fabe6f72 commit r12-7199-gcc68ad87014a331399ccb2528db3bf47fabe6f72 Author: David Malcolm <dmalc...@redhat.com> Date: Thu Feb 10 19:01:30 2022 -0500 analyzer: ignore uninitialized uses of empty types [PR104274] PR analyzer/104274 reports a false positive from -Wanalyzer-use-of-uninitialized-value on hppa when passing an empty struct as a function parameter. pa_pass_by_reference returns true for empty structs, so the call is turned into: struct empty arg.0; arg.0 = arg called_function (arg.0); by gimplify_parameters. However, gimplify_modify_expr discards assignments statments of empty types, so that we end up with: struct empty arg.0; called_function (arg.0); which the analyzer considers to be a use of uninitialized "arg.0"; Given that gimplify_modify_expr will discard any assignments to such types, it seems simplest for -Wanalyzer-use-of-uninitialized-value to ignore values of empty types. gcc/analyzer/ChangeLog: PR analyzer/104274 * region-model.cc (region_model::check_for_poison): Ignore uninitialized uses of empty types. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: PR analyzer/104274 * gcc.dg/analyzer/torture/empty-struct-1.c: New test.
