Hi,
I am using Valgrind 3.17.0 and noticed a strange behavior while running a
code compiled with clang:
#include <cmath>
#include <cstdio>
int main() {
long double x = std::cbrtl(0.0L);
printf("%Lf", x);
return 0;
}
This example gives complete wrong output:
clang++ cbrtl.cpp -o cbrtl && valgrind ./cbrtl
==338929== Memcheck, a memory error detector
==338929== Copyright (C) 2002-2017, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al.
==338929== Using Valgrind-3.17.0 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright
info
==338929== Command: ./cbrtl
==338929==
-0.178840
==338929==
==338929== HEAP SUMMARY:
==338929== in use at exit: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==338929== total heap usage: 2 allocs, 2 frees, 73,728 bytes allocated
==338929==
==338929== All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible
==338929==
==338929== For lists of detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -s
==338929== ERROR SUMMARY: 0 errors from 0 contexts (suppressed: 0 from 0)
However, using -m32 option for clang or gcc compiler (both 32 and 64-bit)
prints 0.0 as expected. I know that valgrind does not support 80-bit long
double and converts it to 64-bit.
I think it might cause this issue as the original code is compiled for
80-bit long doubles. It also might be an issue with clang.
