Bug ID: 63189
Summary: Incorrect results from trivial loop when optimized
with O3 or O2+tree vectorization
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: br...@mynah-software.com
The following code runs two identical loops with the exception that one
variable is marked as volatile:
#include
short int srcdata[16] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 };
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int hix= 8;
int j;
volatile int s1ref = 0;
for(j = 0; j < hix; j++){ s1ref += srcdata[j]*j;}
int s1=0;
for(j = 0; j < hix; j++) { s1 += srcdata[j]*j;}
printf("s1ref=%d, s1=%d\n",s1ref,s1);
}
I would expect the results to be identical for s1ref and s1 under all
compilation options, however when compiling with O3 or O2 with
-ftree-vectorization I get incorrect results for S1:
bms20@arthas:/tmp$ gcc -O2 test.c && ./a.out
s1ref=7, s1=7
bms20@arthas:/tmp$ gcc -O3 test.c && ./a.out
s1ref=7, s1=1
bms20@arthas:/tmp$ gcc -O2 -ftree-vectorize test.c && ./a.out
s1ref=7, s1=1
bms20@arthas:/tmp$
Changing the type of srcdata to integers or unsigned shorts appears to fix the
problem; however, this is producing incorrect results with signed shorts.
It appears that the vector code is incorrect from examining the .s files
produced.
SETUP SPECIFICS:
Exact version of GCC:
bms20@arthas:/tmp$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
