But VR_UNDEFINED of uninitialized variables is fine to use.

failed to remove this call to stmt_visit_phi_node_in_dom_p -- whether we need to
drop to varying is a property that is the same for all PHI nodes in a block.

You set BB_VISITED in after_dom_children -- that is too late, please
set it at the end
of before_dom_children.  Otherwise it pessimizes handling of the PHIs
in the merge
block of a diamond in case the PHI args are defined in the immediate dominator.

As said you need to clear BB_VISITED at the start of evrp as well
(clearing at the end
is just a workaround for a IRA bug).

Oh - that looks like sth we need to fix anyway then.  May I suggest to change
vrp_valueize to do

         && (TREE_CODE (vr->min) == SSA_NAME
                || is_gimple_min_invariant (TREE_CODE (vr->min)))

which also allows [&a, &a] like constants.

I'm curious -- this is not a dg-run testcase but did you investigate this
isn't generating wrong code now?  At least I can't see how
the if (1 & (t % rhs)) test could vanish.

I hope we'll get GIMPLE unit testing finished for GCC 7 so we can add separate
unit-tests for VRP and EVRP.

Thanks,
Richard.
