When points-to analysis finds SCCs it marks the wrong node as being part of a found cycle. It only wants to mark the node it collapses to but marked the entry node found rather than the one it collapses to. This causes fallout in the patch for PR115236 but generally weakens the points-to solution by collapsing too many nodes. Note that this fix might slow down points-to solving.
Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, pushed. * tree-ssa-structalias.cc (scc_visit): Mark the node we collapse to as being in a component. --- gcc/tree-ssa-structalias.cc | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/gcc/tree-ssa-structalias.cc b/gcc/tree-ssa-structalias.cc index 3099658f100..53552b63532 100644 --- a/gcc/tree-ssa-structalias.cc +++ b/gcc/tree-ssa-structalias.cc @@ -1542,8 +1542,10 @@ scc_visit (constraint_graph_t graph, class scc_info *si, unsigned int n) graph->indirect_cycles[i - FIRST_REF_NODE] = lowest_node; } } + bitmap_set_bit (si->deleted, lowest_node); } - bitmap_set_bit (si->deleted, n); + else + bitmap_set_bit (si->deleted, n); } else si->scc_stack.safe_push (n); -- 2.35.3
