Summary: -fwritable strings triggers bad code generation
Product: gcc
Version: 3.4
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
ReportedBy: fnf at ninemoons dot com
CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu
GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu
GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu
When using -fwritable-strings, the compiler emits two copies of the
strings. In the supplied example, one of the copies is emitted into a
data area that is supposed to contain pointers to the strings.
In checking some older versions of gcc, it would appear that this
bug first appeared in late May 2003 or early June 2003.
Environment:
System: Linux fred.ninemoons.com 2.4.20-20.9 #1 Mon Aug 18 11:27:43 EDT 2003 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
Architecture: i686
host: i686-pc-linux-gnu
build: i686-pc-linux-gnu
target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
configured with: /src/sourceware/gcc/gcc/configure -v --prefix=/usr/local/sourceware --enable-languages=c,c++
How-To-Repeat:
Here is the source code:
char *names[] = {"alice", "bob", "john"};
main ()
{
printf ("names[0] = %s\n", names[0]);
}
This works without -fwritable-strings:
$ gcc -o j j.c
$ ./j
names[0] = alice
$
It coredumps with -fwritable-strings:
$ gcc -fwritable-strings -o j j.c
$ ./j
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$
Here is the generated code:
.file "j.c"
.data
.LC0:
.string "alice"
.LC1:
.string "bob"
.LC2:
.string "john"
.globl names

I can confirm this on the mainline (20031028), I want to say it is related to deferring of writing
globals.
