Frank Heckenbach <f.heckenb...@fh-soft.de> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary|warning |invalid warning: iteration | |7 invokes undefined | |behavior --- Comment #1 from Frank Heckenbach <f.heckenb...@fh-soft.de> --- % cat test.c int d = 0, b = 8, a[8][8]; int main () { for (int c = 0; c < 11; c++) { d = a[c >= b ? c - b : c][c + 1 >= b ? c + 1 - b : c + 1]; if (b && c) d = c; } } % gcc -O3 test.c test.c: In function 'main': test.c:7:32: warning: iteration 7 invokes undefined behavior [-Waggressive-loop-optimizations] 7 | d = a[c >= b ? c - b : c][c + 1 >= b ? c + 1 - b : c + 1]; | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ test.c:5:3: note: within this loop 5 | for (int c = 0; c < 11; c++) | ^~~ Many things are strange about this warning: - First, I think it's invalid -- the "?:" ensures the array indexes are in bounds, all variables are initialized,so I don't see what would be UB. - It claims UB occurs on iteration 7, but the warning disappears when I change the loop condition to "c < 10" (which would also include iteration 7) - The "if" statement with both conditions and the assignment is necessary to trigger the warning, although it has no actual effect. - The warning seems to apply to the 2nd array index, but already disappears when I turn the first index into "0" without changing the 2nd one. - It disappears when I make all variables local or all global.
