Here is a slightly modified version of bf64-1.c with print statments: struct tmp { long long int pad : 12; long long int field : 52; };
struct tmp2 { long long int field : 52; long long int pad : 12; }; struct tmp sub (struct tmp xtmp); struct tmp2 sub2 (struct tmp2 xtmp2); struct tmp sub (struct tmp xtmp) { xtmp.field |= 0x0008765412345678LL; return xtmp; } struct tmp2 sub2 (struct tmp2 xtmp2) { xtmp2.field |= 0x0008765412345678LL; return xtmp2; } main() { struct tmp xtmp = {0x123, 0xFFF000FFF000FLL}; struct tmp2 xtmp2 = {0xFFF000FFF000FLL, 0x123}; xtmp = sub (xtmp); xtmp2 = sub2 (xtmp2); printf("%lld\n", xtmp.pad); printf("%lld\n", xtmp.field); printf("%lld\n", xtmp2.pad); printf("%lld\n", xtmp2.field); exit (0); } With -O0 it prints: 291 -738197547393 291 -738197547393 At -O1 it prints: 291 1479942473249059 291 -738197547393 This bug happens on IA64 HP-UX (with -O1 and in 32 or 64 bit mode) but not on IA64 Linux. I tracked the start of failure to the following patch but was unable to figure out what the exact problem is. 2004-09-03 Richard Henderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PR middle-end/9997 * cfgexpand.c (LOCAL_ALIGNMENT): Provide default.
