--- Comment #5 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Note there is another way of solving this. From my anylsis (which I wrote in PR 121921): currently DSE5 can remove the stores: ``` Deleted dead store: MEM[(struct __as_base &)&data] ={v} {CLOBBER(bob)}; Deleted dead store: MEM[(struct _Bvector_impl_data *)&data] ={v} {CLOBBER(bob)}; ``` But DCE7 (which is right afterwards) does not `remove operator new/delete` because this missed optimization and then forwprop4 (which is right after dce7) is able to see (b+s) - (b+s - b) is just b and then later on the next DCE optimizes away the new/delete pair. > Unused new/delete pair is only being determined at cddce3 which is bit late. The reason why it is not before hand is due to `e - (e - b)` not being optimized to b until forwprop4 which is right after dce7. If `e - (e - b)` got folded say fre1: ``` _1 = this_15(D)->_M_impl.D.25104._M_start.D.16464._M_p; ... _20 = MEM[(const struct _Bvector_impl *)this_15(D)].D.25104._M_end_of_storage; _5 = _20 - _1; // e - b _8 = (long unsigned int) _5; _9 = -_8; _10 = _20 + _9; // e - (e - b) _11 = &this_15(D)->_M_impl; operator delete (_10, _8); ``` We should recongize the operator new/delete pair earlier too.
