It is a silent change, but the new behavior is within the bounds of what the existing option permits. There is never any guarantee that any given optimization will be performed, so this won't break anyone's code (unless some optimization is masking a real error in the code). There may be some cases where it will introduce a performance regression, but I think those are likely to be minor regressions. In the case of complex division, the change could result in a numeric difference but the new results will be more accurate and the fast fp-model doesn't guarantee numeric consistency. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/100453 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
