Extended Description

source.c:

#include <stdio.h>

struct {
  unsigned char a[4];
  unsigned char b[4];
} s;

static void init_arr(volatile void *data, unsigned char size) {
  unsigned char *bytes = (unsigned char *)data;
  for (unsigned char i = 0; i != size; ++i) {
    bytes[i] = i;
  }
}

int main() {
  init_arr(&s, sizeof(s) );
  printf("a:%x %x %x %x\n", s.a[0], s.a[1], s.a[2], s.a[3]);
  printf("b:%x %x %x %x\n", s.b[0], s.b[1], s.b[2], s.b[3]);
}

<main>:

    callq  1a0 </PLprintf>
    xor    %eax,%eax
    pop    %rbp
    retq   

With LTO optimization clang assumes that s.b[0] == s.b[1] == s.b[2] == s.b[3] == 0 and generates all zero values for the second printf().

With optimization level -O2 or -O3 and -flto, clang produces correct code:

<main>:
    push   %rbp
    mov    %rsp,%rbp
    lea    0xf5(%rip),%rdi        # 1e0 <.L.str>
    mov    $0x0,%esi
    mov    $0x1,%edx
    mov    $0x2,%ecx
    mov    $0x3,%r8d
    xor    %eax,%eax
    callq  190 </PLprintf>
    lea    0xe1(%rip),%rdi        # 1ef <.L.str.1>
    mov    $0x4,%esi
    mov    $0x5,%edx
    mov    $0x6,%ecx
    mov    $0x7,%r8d
    xor    %eax,%eax
    callq  190 </PLprintf>
    xor    %eax,%eax
    pop    %rbp
    retq

I tried to look at this one, but I wasn't thrilled about any of the fixes I was able to come up with. I guess a short term solution would be still to have what I propose in comment#4, although I'm not exactly sure about the performance implications. This code has been generated in my organization using a fuzz tester, so it's not something seen in the wild. I'd rather not rush a fix in 5.0.

This has been there probably since forever (2004), but it's a serious miscompile, so tentatively marking this as blocker.

It doesn't seem like this is getting fixed for 5.0 :-/ Unblocking.

I'm still open to take a fix if it emerges real soon.

"inbounds" just means that the result has to be somewhere inside the allocated memory; you're still allowed to index outside the bounds of the GEP's type. (In theory, you could use inrange to drive SROA decisions, but we only support for that in limited circumstances, so not really useful at the moment.)

Andrea made me notice that actually there's something iffy in the input IR:

define internal fastcc void @​init_arr() unnamed_addr #​1 {
entry:
  br label %for.body

for.cond.cleanup:                                 ; preds = %for.body
  ret void

for.body:                                         ; preds = %for.body, %entry
  %indvars.iv = phi i64 [ 0, %entry ], [ %indvars.iv.next, %for.body ]
  %arrayidx = getelementptr inbounds %struct.anon, %struct.anon* @​s, i64 0, i32 0, i64 %indvars.iv
  %0 = trunc i64 %indvars.iv to i8
  store i8 %0, i8* %arrayidx, align 1
  %indvars.iv.next = add nuw nsw i64 %indvars.iv, 1
  %cmp = icmp eq i64 %indvars.iv.next, 8
  br i1 %cmp, label %for.cond.cleanup, label %for.body
}

The GEP results in out-of-bounds accesses. I guess this is technically UB? Still, as IPSRA bails out when there are out-of-bounds accesses for arrays we might try to be nice and detect some situations also for struct and prevent the optimization in these cases.

CC:ing some people who understand SROA better than I do. I've been thinking about this a little more, and I think it's going to be hard making this transformation safe (if not impossible) without rewriting the loop.

My proposal is that of changing the function that checks for safety [IsUserOfGlobalSafeForSRA()] to give up if the gep indices are not all constants (currently it just checks for the first two).

This would result in some optimization loss when trying to do partial SRA interprocedurally (see, e.g. test/Transforms/GlobalOpt/globalsra-partial.ll) but I'm not sure if it's going to matter a lot in practice.

Happy to hear about alternatives, if you have something in mind.

This is a nasty IP-SRA bug. The interprocedural SROA (inside GlobalOpt) replaces

%struct.anon = type { [4 x i8], [4 x i8] }

with:

@​s.0 = internal global [4 x i8] zeroinitializer @​s.1 = internal global [4 x i8] zeroinitializer

And in @​init_arr() : define internal fastcc void @​init_arr() unnamed_addr { entry: br label %for.body

for.cond.cleanup: ; preds = %for.body ret void

for.body: ; preds = %for.body, %entry %indvars.iv = phi i64 [ 0, %entry ], [ %indvars.iv.next, %for.body ] %arrayidx.0 = getelementptr [4 x i8], [4 x i8] @​s.0, i32 0, i64 %indvars.iv %0 = trunc i64 %indvars.iv to i8 store i8 %0, i8 %arrayidx.0, align 1 %indvars.iv.next = add nuw nsw i64 %indvars.iv, 1 %cmp = icmp eq i64 %indvars.iv.next, 8 br i1 %cmp, label %for.cond.cleanup, label %for.body }

This is really wrong as SRA is completely throwing away @s.1 which is considered "constant". I'll think about the best way to fix this. We might consider preventing IP-SRA in cases like this (we're getting via a GEP some bytes of the struct inside a loop, so when we replace the struct with two arrays the loop needs to be rewritten altogether [and from what I can see there's no such logic in SRA]).

[llvmbot]

it's IPO/GlobalOpt.

$ ./opt meh.ll | ./lli
a:0 1 2 3
b:4 5 6 7

$ ./opt -globalopt meh.ll | ./lli
a:0 1 2 3
b:0 0 0 0

A little reduced:

%struct.anon = type { [4 x i8], [4 x i8] }

@​s = internal global %struct.anon zeroinitializer, align 1
@.str = private unnamed_addr constant [15 x i8] c"a:%x %x %x %x\0A\00", align 1
@.str.1 = private unnamed_addr constant [15 x i8] c"b:%x %x %x %x\0A\00", align 1
