Bug ID: 107494
Summary: -ffinite-loops is not enable by default
Product: gcc
Version: 12.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: web
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: 570070308 at qq dot com
Target Milestone: ---
According to https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html
```
-ffinite-loops
Assume that a loop with an exit will eventually take the exit and not loop
indefinitely. This allows the compiler to remove loops that otherwise have no
side-effects, not considering eventual endless looping as such.
This option is enabled by default at -O2 for C++ with -std=c++11 or higher.
```
How ever, it was not enable by default at -O2 for C++ with -std=c++11 or
higher:
```
ig@ig-virtual-machine:~/igc$ /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/cc1plus
-std=c++11 -O2 --help | grep finite-loops
-ffinite-loops [disabled]
ig@ig-virtual-machine:~/igc$ /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12/cc1plus

-ffinite-loops [disabled]

```
