Bug ID: 64057
Summary: Overlapping memcpy generated for array assignment
Product: gcc
Version: 4.9.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ada
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: tobiasu at tmux dot org

memcpy wrapper with overlap detection
The Ada front end generates a overlapping memcpy call for some array
assignments.
Using a strict version of memcpy that checks for overlap breaks gnat 4.8 and
4.9 on my Linux and OpenBSD test systems. Other applications compiled with gnat
may be affected as well.
Easy way to reproduce:
Build gnat and ^C once gcc/ada/bldtools/sinfo is generated.
Build the attached memcpy wrapper or patch your libc with checks.
$ cd $BUILD/gcc/ada/bldtools/sinfo
$ LD_PRELOAD=./memcpy.so gdb ./xsinfo
