[Bug c/56407] New: Optimizations (-O2 -O3) make comparison of arrays of ints to fail


http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56407

             Bug #: 56407
           Summary: Optimizations (-O2 -O3) make comparison of arrays of
                    ints to fail
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: quintin@lix.polytechnique.fr

The .c .i .s .o files

This is my first bug report, so I hope this is really a bug and that I file it
correctly.

Versions of my stuff:
- gcc (Debian 4.7.2-5) 4.7.2
- Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9600 @ 2.80GHz

gcc compile stuff:
Using built-in specs.

gcc version 4.7.2 (Debian 4.7.2-5) 

The bug appears when I compile the program with -O2 or -O3:
$ gcc -O3 gcc_bug.c -o gcc_bug
$ ./gcc_bug && echo ok || echo fail
fail

But it works fine with -O1:
$ gcc -O1 gcc_bug.c -o gcc_bug
$ ./gcc_bug && echo ok || echo fail
ok

It works fine with an older version of gcc:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.6 20120305 (Red Hat 4.4.6-4)
$ gcc -v

$ gcc -O3 gcc_bug.c -o gcc_bug

ok

When the program fails with gcc 4.7.2 valgrind tells me:
$ gcc -O3 -g gcc_bug.c -o gcc_bug
$ valgrind ./gcc_bug

Whereas all is fine for valgrind with -O1. Also all is fine with -fwrapv:
$ gcc -O3 -fwrapv gcc_bug.c -o gcc_bug
$ ./gcc_bug && echo ok || echo fail
ok

I suppose the bug appears when gcc is doing some optimizations but I do not
know which. Any small modifications to the program make it work. For example if
I remove the ``if ( comm ) {" line or if I replace ``for( j = 1 ; j <= sz" by
``for( j = 1 ; j < sz".

======================================
extern void exit(int);
extern int rand(void);

void copy(int *r,int *a,int na) {
  int i;
  for( i = 0 ; i < na ; i++ ) {
    r[i] = a[i];
  }
}

void random(int *a,int na) {
  int i;
  for( i = 0 ; i < na ; i++ ) {
    a[i] = rand();
  }
}

int cmp(int *a,int *b,int n) {
  int i;
  for( i = 0 ; i < n ; i++ ) {
    if ( a[i] != b[i] ) return -1;
  }
  return 0;
}

void test(int sz,int comm) {
  int j,n;
  int v[64],w[64];
  for( j = 1 ; j <= sz ; j++ ) {
    n = (2 * j - 1) * (2 * j - 1);
    random(w,n);
    copy(v,w,n);
    if ( comm ) {
      if ( cmp(v,w,n) ) exit(-1);
    }
  }
  exit(0);
}

int main(void) {
  test(2,1);
  return 0;
}
