It's a double-free bug in lra.c, albeit one that requires being used
in a multithreaded way from libgccjit to be triggered.
libgccjit's test-threads.c repeatedly compiles and runs numerous tests,
each in a separate thread.
Attempting to add an empty test that generates no code leads to a
double-free ICE within that thread, within lra.c's
finish_insn_code_data_once.
The root cause is that the insn_code_data array is cleared in
init_insn_code_data_once, but this is only called the first time
a cgraph_node is expanded [1], whereas the "loop-over-all-elements
and free them" is unconditionally called in finalize [2]. Hence
if there are no functions:
* the array is not re-initialized for the empty context
* when finish_insn_code_data_once is called for the empty context
it still contains the freed pointers from the previous context
that held the jit mutex, and hence the free is a double-free.
This patch sets the pointers to NULL after freeing them, fixing
the ICE. The calls to free are still guarded by a check for NULL,
which is redundant, but maybe there's a reason for not wanting to
call "free" on a possibly-NULL value many times on process exit?
(it makes the diff cleaner, at least)
Fixes the issue in jit.dg.
Full bootstrap & regression test in progress.
Is it OK for master if it passes?
Thanks
Dave
