Bug ID: 69835
Summary: [6 Regression] -Wnonnull diagnoses parameter
comparisons with NULL even when those could have
changed
Product: gcc
Version: 6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
-Wnonnull warns even about:
static void f(const char *s)
{
do {
printf("%s\n",s);
s = NULL;
} while (s != NULL);
}
which is wrong, after the parameter has been changed or could have been
changed, it is completely valid to compare it against NULL.
