Bug ID: 106595
Summary: False positive Wanalyzer-out-of-bounds warnings in
yacc generated files
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: analyzer

reduced httpd log with Wanalyzer-out-of-bounds false positives
The out-of-bounds checker emits some false-positives related to negative
offsets on the 'yyvsa' variable, also called 'semantic value stack'. The
analyzer isn't able to infer that the stack always has enough elements. An
exemplary log from building httpd is attached to this report.
David & I decided to leave it as is for now and merge the checker. Dependent on
how often the false-positives occur, we might auto-disable the warning on code
that looks like yacc generated code.
