            Bug ID: 110458
           Summary: -Warray-bounds=2 new false positive
           Product: gcc
           Version: 14.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: sirl at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: ---

testcase

Since somewhere between r14-1870 and r14-2097 a new -Warray-bounds=2 false
positive is shown for this little testcase:

typedef struct {
  unsigned arr1[4];
  unsigned arr2[4];
} data;

void f_notok(void *arrayOut) {
  int i;
  unsigned *arr2;
  unsigned *arr1;
  data *dataOut;
  dataOut = (data *)arrayOut;
  arr1 = dataOut[0].arr1;
  arr2 = dataOut[0].arr2;
  i = 0;
  for (; i < 4; i++) {
    arr1[i] = 0;
    arr2[i] = 0;
  }
}

When compiled with trunk@r2097 "gcc -O2 -W -Wall -Warray-bounds=2 -c
bug-Warray-bounds-eq-2.c" the warning is:

bug-Warray-bounds-eq-2.c: In function 'f_notok':
bug-Warray-bounds-eq-2.c:16:13: warning: '__builtin_memset' offset [16, 31]
from the object at 'arrayOut' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject
'arr1' with type 'unsigned int[4]' at offset 0 [-Warray-bounds=]
   16 |     arr1[i] = 0;
      |     ~~~~~~~~^~~
bug-Warray-bounds-eq-2.c:2:12: note: subobject 'arr1' declared here
    2 |   unsigned arr1[4];
      |            ^~~~

gcc-13.1.1 and earlier didn't warn here. The attached full testcase also shows
that slight variations in the code silence the warning.
