--- Comment #12 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by David Malcolm <dmalc...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:e0139b2a912585496f23c352f0e2c56895f78fbf commit r11-7270-ge0139b2a912585496f23c352f0e2c56895f78fbf Author: David Malcolm <dmalc...@redhat.com> Date: Wed Feb 17 10:37:16 2021 -0500 analyzer: fix false leak involving params [PR98969] This patch updates the svalue liveness code so that the initial value of parameters at top-level functions to the analysis are treated as live (since the values are presumably still live within the outside-of-the-analysis calling code). This fixes the false leak in PR analyzer/98969 seen on: void test (long int i) { struct foo *f = (struct foo *)i; f->expr = __builtin_malloc (1024); } since the calling code can presumably still access the allocated buffer via: ((struct foo *)i)->expr The patch also removes the expected leak warnings from g++.dg/analyzer/pr99064.C and gcc.dg/analyzer/pr96841.c, which now appear to me to be false positives. gcc/analyzer/ChangeLog: PR analyzer/98969 * constraint-manager.cc (dead_svalue_purger::should_purge_p): Update for change to svalue::live_p. * program-state.cc (sm_state_map::on_liveness_change): Likewise. (program_state::detect_leaks): Likewise. * region-model-reachability.cc (reachable_regions::init_cluster): When dealing with a symbolic region, if the underlying pointer is implicitly live, add the region to the reachable regions. * region-model.cc (region_model::compare_initial_and_pointer): Move logic for detecting initial values of params to initial_svalue::initial_value_of_param_p. * svalue.cc (svalue::live_p): Convert "live_svalues" from a reference to a pointer; support it being NULL.

(initial_svalue::implicitly_live_p): Likewise. Treat the initial values of params for the top level frame as still live.
