Yep, the check is there for weak symbols. nonzero_address returns true for most
common symbols.
I tried to be simply conservative here about correctness, but I assume we would
have
non-transitive equivalence because something like this would trigger abort
if (fn == NULL && var == NULL)
assert (fn == var);
I assume one can before nonzero_address check something like
if (TREE_CODE (decl) != TREE_CODE (s2->decl)
&& ((analyzed && DECL_EXTERNAL (decl)) || !DECL_WEAK (decl))
&& ((s2->analyzed && DECL_EXTERNAL (s2->decl)) || !DECL_WEAK (decl)))
return 0;
before nonzero_address check as I see that if both fn and var are defined
they can't bind to same address. (basically the second part of conditional
copy nonzero_address with flag_delete_null_pointer_checks assumed to be true,
extra parameter to nonzero_address may do)
