            Bug ID: 85233
           Summary: Incorrect -Wmaybe-uninitialized with
                    -fpartial-inlining -finline-small-functions
           Product: gcc
           Version: 7.3.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: erik.carstensen at intel dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Created attachment 43858

Reproducer

When compiling the attachment with
gcc -Wall -c foo.c -o foo.o -O1 -fpartial-inlining -finline-small-functions
I get the warning:
foo.c:26:11: warning: ‘x’ may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
         c = x;
though it can be easily proven that x is not used uninitialized.

I tried this with 7.3.1 from fedora 27,
$ gcc -v

Thread model: posix
gcc version 7.3.1 20180303 (Red Hat 7.3.1-5) (GCC) 

I also tried some other gcc versions I had lying around. I can reproduce it in
all versions I have that support -fpartial-inlining (down to gcc 5.2.0)

While minimizing the test case I could see that the warning only seems to
happen when f is partially inlined, so a workaround is to pass
-fno-partial-inlining for affected files.
