             Bug #: 56654
           Summary: uninit warning behaves erratically
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.9.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: tree-optimization
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: rguenth@gcc.gnu.org
                CC: xinliangli@gmail.com


For c-c++-common/uninit-17.c we currently expect the uninit use at:

static void bar(int a, int *ptr)
{
  do
  {
    int b;   /* { dg-message "declared" } */
    if (b < 40) {
      ptr[0] = b;
    }
    b += 1; /* { dg-warning "may be used uninitialized" } */
    ptr++;
  }
  while (--a != 0);
}

where I would expect it at the if stmt.  Now, when I exchange the late
DOM and the late VRP passes I instead get the warning two lines earlier
(inside the guarded BB).  But there is no change in the IL:

the only difference is in the order of b_5 immediate uses.

That is, find_uninit_use should impose an ordering when walking over
immediate uses - for example visit the most dominating use first.
