[Bug c/71539] New: incomplete execution of a nested loop for -O2 and -O3


https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=71539

            Bug ID: 71539
           Summary: incomplete execution of a nested loop for -O2 and -O3
           Product: gcc
           Version: 5.3.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: cubitect at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Created attachment 38700
  --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=38700&action=edit
example source file

For the optimisation levels -O2 and -O3, the exact behaviour of the attached
program falsely depends on the values of BIGNUM and siz. For the given example,
the nested loop in init() terminates early.

Both -O0 and -O1 give the expected output:
$ gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic test.c -o test -O1 && ./test 
 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6
 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

However:
$ gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic test.c -o test -O2 && ./test 
 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 4 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 6 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

$ gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic test.c -o test -O3 && ./test 
 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0


In my tests, the issue occurred for gcc versions 5.3.1 and 6.0, but not for
version 4.9.3.
