Bug ID: 108127 Summary: FP due to combination of -Warray-bounds and UBSAN Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: frolov.da at phystech dot edu Target Milestone: --- I've tried to build the next example (which is a reduced example of one of the functions from firefox): static const unsigned DECPOWERS[10] = { 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 10000000, 100000000, 1000000000}; unsigned foo(int discard, unsigned char *lsu, unsigned char *up) { int count; unsigned cut, quot; count = discard; cut = discard - (count - 1) - 1; if (cut == 1 - 1) { return 8; } else { quot = *up >> cut; cut++; return DECPOWERS[1 - cut]; } } $ gcc -O2 -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error -Werror=array-bounds -fsanitize=shift,signed-integer-overflow and got an error: <source>: In function 'foo': <source>:16:21: error: array subscript 4294967265 is above array bounds of 'const unsigned int[10]' [-Werror=array-bounds=] 16 | return DECPOWERS[1 - cut]; | ~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~ <source>:1:23: note: while referencing 'DECPOWERS' 1 | static const unsigned DECPOWERS[10] = { 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 10000000, 100000000, 1000000000} Looks like the builtin functions of the ubsan (such as UBSAN_CHECK_SUB) does not allow optimizations and cause these false positives. If I remove the sanitizer flags then there will be no warning.
