Bug ID: 112947 Summary: Contradictory indications of extern __thread address NULL or not with UBSAN Product: gcc Version: 13.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: resence at parsoma dot net Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 56848 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=56848&action=edit The main code which reproduces this issue I have not managed to reduce this below 2 files. File 1, m.c: __thread int nimInErrorMode__system_u4299; File 2, g.c, attached. Then run: gcc -c -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -pthread -fsanitize=undefined -O0 -fno-strict-aliasing -o m.o m.c gcc -c -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -pthread -fsanitize=undefined -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -o g.o g.c gcc -o repro m.o g.o -fsanitize=undefined -lpthread With the output: g.c: In function ‘nimErrorFlag’: g.c:25:40: warning: the comparison will always evaluate as ‘false’ for the address of ‘nimInErrorMode__system_u4299’ will never be NULL [-Waddress] 25 | if (((&nimInErrorMode__system_u4299) == (void *)0)) { | ^~ g.c:16:21: note: ‘nimInErrorMode__system_u4299’ declared here 16 | extern __thread int nimInErrorMode__system_u4299; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Always-false comparison is true gcc -v output, running from Debian unstable on amd64: Using built-in specs.
