Bug ID: 97429
Summary: missing -Warray-bounds indexing past the end of a
pointer to array
Product: gcc
Version: 11.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: tree-optimization
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: msebor at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
The out of bounds index in fa(), ga(), and fp() is diagnosed as expected by
-Warray-bounds but the same bug in gp() is not. They all should be.
$ cat xx.c && gcc -O2 -S -Wall xx.c
int fa (int a[3][5])
{
return a[3][5]; // warning (good)
}
int ga (int a[3][5])
{
int *p = &a[0][0];
return p[15]; // warning (good)
}
int fp (int (*pa)[3][5])
{
return (*pa)[3][5]; // warning (good)
}
int gp (int (*pa)[3][5])
{
int *p = &(*pa)[0][0]; // missing warning
return p[15];
}
