arm-eabi-gcc with -O2 is wrong code output.

[Ry deen <rydeen999 at yahoo dot co dot jp>]

Hi all,

The code that contains the code shown below is compiled
with arm-eabi-gcc -O2.

#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct {
        int member1;
} aaa_struct;

int bbb;

void test(aaa_struct *aaa)
{
        if((aaa_struct *)NULL == aaa) {
                printf("1\n");
        }
        else {
                printf("2\n");
        }

        bbb = aaa->member1;

        if((aaa_struct *)NULL == aaa) {
                printf("3\n");
        }
        else {
                printf("4\n");
        }
}

When the argument is NULL, this function outputs the
following result.

1
4

However, when optional -O1 is  specified, it is  correctly
executed.

When the assembler code is confirmed, the character string
"3" does lost by optimization.
