Richard, Thanks a lot for the hint.

Do you mean: instead of force_gimple_operand (size_expr, &seq, true, NULL); I should 1178 if (TREE_CODE (size_expr) == MODIFY_EXPR) 1179 { 1180 tree rhs = TREE_OPERAND (size_expr, 1); 1181 force_gimple_operand (rhs, &seq, true, NULL); 1182 } ? However, with this change, I got the exactly same error at the above line 1181. (gdb) call debug_generic_expr(rhs) obj_2(D) != 0B ? (sizetype) (int) MAX_EXPR <(sizetype) MAX_EXPR <MEM <int> [(void *)&*obj_2(D)], 0> + 4, 4> : 18446744073709551615 The issue is still the same as before. So, I am wondering whether the above size expression I generated has some issue? Or the routine “force_gimple_operand” has some bug when the tree expr is a COND_EXPR expression? Thanks.
