Bug ID: 105705 Summary: std::equal triggers incorrect -Wnonnull warning Product: gcc Version: 12.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libstdc++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: derek.mauro at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- The following program triggers an incorrect -Wnonnull warning when compiled with gcc 12.1.0 (I used the Docker container from https://hub.docker.com/_/gcc on Linux). Note that it seems both -Wnonnull and -O2 are required to trigger the bug. Also note that reversing the arguments to std::equal (using v0 for the first 2 arguments and v1 for the second set) does not trigger the bug. #include <vector> #include <algorithm> bool f() { std::vector<int> v0; std::vector<int> v1{1}; return std::equal(v1.begin(), v1.end(), v0.begin(), v0.end()); } g++ test.cc -Wnonnull -O2 In file included from /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/vector:60, from test.cc:1: In function 'constexpr int std::__memcmp(const _Tp*, const _Up*, size_t) [with _Tp = int; _Up = int]', inlined from 'static bool std::__equal<true>::equal(const _Tp*, const _Tp*, const _Tp*) [with _Tp = int]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1176:27, inlined from 'bool std::__equal_aux1(_II1, _II1, _II2) [with _II1 = int*; _II2 = int*]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1210:43, inlined from 'bool std::__equal_aux(_II1, _II1, _II2) [with _II1 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >; _II2 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1218:31, inlined from 'bool std::equal(_II1, _II1, _II2) [with _II1 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >; _II2 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1555:30, inlined from 'bool std::__equal4(_II1, _II1, _II2, _II2) [with _II1 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >; _II2 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1607:32, inlined from 'bool std::equal(_II1, _II1, _II2, _II2) [with _II1 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >; _II2 = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, vector<int> >]' at /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:1677:38, inlined from 'bool f()' at test.cc:7:20: /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:105:32: warning: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull] 105 | return __builtin_memcmp(__first1, __first2, sizeof(_Tp) * __num); | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /usr/local/include/c++/12.1.0/bits/stl_algobase.h:105:32: note: in a call to built-in function 'int __builtin_memcmp(const void*, const void*, long unsigned int)'
