[PATCH] PR tree-optimization/55079: Don't remove all exits of a loop during loop unroll


Hi,

r193098 introduced a change to the loop unroll behaviour, where exits
beyond nb_iterations_upper_bound were removed as being redundant.  This
assumption is not true for an undefined behaviour, which is when a loop
causes access beyond bounds of an array.  In such a case, all exits are
removed and the result is an infinite loop.  Essentially, the following
program results in an infinite loop with -O:

int d[16];

int
main (void)
{
  int k, satd = 0, dd;

  for (dd=d[k=0]; k<16;)
    {
      satd += (dd < 0 ? -dd : dd);
      ++k;
      dd=d[k];
    }

  return satd;
}

I understand that the behaviour is undefined, but this is easily
avoidable by skipping removal of the exits if it results in an infinite
loop.  Attached patch does exactly that.

I guess a further improvement to this (if the patch approach is valid)
would be to issue a warning to the user based on this analysis.  I am
trying to figure out a way to call the remove_redundant_iv_tests
function safely in tree-vrp so that even -O2 does not produce an
infinite loop for the above program (it has since r186592) and prints
the warning instead.  Simply calling it after max_loop_iterations
causes a regression in the testsuite that I haven't figured out yet.

I have tested the patch on x86_64 for C language and the testsuite
reports no regressions.  In fact, it seems to have fixed a previous
failure in gcc.dg/vect/slp-perm-9.c.

Regards,
Siddhesh
