commit r15-11675-g4e269ed1088e1d3235bca34846f2912e3ecb23b7 Author: Jonathan Wakely <[email protected]> Date: Mon Oct 5 09:23:28 2026 +0100 libstdc++: do not zero stack buffer in std::bitset extraction The stack buffer used for the istream extraction operator does not need to be zero-filled before we write to it. To prevent that zeroing from happening automatically with -ftrivial-auto-var-init we can use the [[indeterminate]] attribute. For C++98 compatibility, __attribute__((uninitialized)) needs to be used instead. Also define a new variable for the array length which is never zero. This avoids a -Walloc-size warning in C++98 where the new-expression is not a discarded statement so the compiler sees `new _CharT[0]`: include/bitset:1717: warning: allocation of insufficient size '0' for type 'char' with size '1' [-Walloc-size] libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: * include/std/bitset (operator>>): Define __array_len to ensure that the array size is never zero. Add uninitialized attribute to __buf.
