So for a comment, what about following then? With or without the IMNSHO useless && (tree_int_cst_sgn (argmin) < 0 || tree_int_cst_sgn (argmax) > 0) > On a separate note, while testing the patch I noticed that it's > not exactly equivalent to what's on trunk.

That should be a clear argument for why writing it in so many places is bad, it is simply much more error-prone, there are too many cases to get right. > char d[2]; > > void f (unsigned i) > { > if (i < 1234 || 12345 < i) > i = 1234; > > __builtin_sprintf (d, "%#hhx", i); > } What happens is that because the original range doesn't contain zero you set likely_adjust to false and then never update it again because the implicit cast changed the range. If some version of the patch is approved, I'll leave addition of this testcase to you (incrementally). 2017-02-14 Jakub Jelinek <ja...@redhat.com> PR tree-optimization/79327 * gimple-ssa-sprintf.c (format_integer): Remove likely_adjust variable, its initialization and use. --- gcc/gimple-ssa-sprintf.c.jj 2017-02-14 21:21:56.048745037 +0100 +++ gcc/gimple-ssa-sprintf.c 2017-02-14 21:25:20.939033174 +0100 @@ -1232,10 +1232,6 @@ format_integer (const directive &dir, tr of the format string by returning [-1, -1]. */ return fmtresult (); - /* True if the LIKELY counter should be adjusted upward from the MIN - counter to account for arguments with unknown values. */ - bool likely_adjust = false; - fmtresult res; /* Using either the range the non-constant argument is in, or its @@ -1265,14 +1261,6 @@ format_integer (const directive &dir, tr res.argmin = argmin; res.argmax = argmax; - - /* Set the adjustment for an argument whose range includes - zero since that doesn't include the octal or hexadecimal - base prefix. */ - wide_int wzero = wi::zero (wi::get_precision (min)); - if (wi::le_p (min, wzero, SIGNED) - && !wi::neg_p (max)) - likely_adjust = true; } else if (range_type == VR_ANTI_RANGE) { @@ -1307,11 +1295,6 @@ format_integer (const directive &dir, tr if (!argmin) { - /* Set the adjustment for an argument whose range includes - zero since that doesn't include the octal or hexadecimal - base prefix. */ - likely_adjust = true; - if (TREE_CODE (argtype) == POINTER_TYPE) { argmin = build_int_cst (pointer_sized_int_node, 0); @@ -1364,14 +1347,19 @@ format_integer (const directive &dir, tr res.range.max = MAX (max1, max2); } - /* Add the adjustment for an argument whose range includes zero - since it doesn't include the octal or hexadecimal base prefix. */ + /* If the range is known, use the maximum as the likely length. */ if (res.knownrange) res.range.likely = res.range.max; else { + /* Otherwise, use the minimum.
