Why this is marked as "other" ? This is either a problem on the C/C++
front-ends or it is a problem in the middle-end that doesn't handle the
overflow/underflow correctly during conversion, isn't it?

Also, this happens also for i686-pc-gnu-linux and I guess for almost any
possible host/target, so perhaps Host and Target should say something
different.

It is a bug in the documentation. As today in GCC 4.3 there is not a single
Wextra warning that has anything to do with floating-point events.

Is FP_INFINITE undeclared in spu-elf?

The same errors occur on hppa*-*-hpux*.  FP_INFINITE isn't defined in
HP-UX 10.  For HP-UX 11, we need "-D_HPUX_SOURCE" to get math.h to define
FP_INFINITE.

[Bug other/23572] No warning for assigning a value to a 'float' variable that overflows with option -Wextra

[qiyaoltc at cn dot ibm dot com]

------- Additional Comments From qiyaoltc at cn dot ibm dot com  2005-08-29 05:00 -------
I add suffix f to the end of float constants at line 5 and line 7, and add
option -pedantic, the output from gcc is like this:

overflow-test.c:5: warning: floating constant exceeds range of "float"
overflow-test.c:9: warning: floating constant exceeds range of "double"
overflow-test.c:13: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type
overflow-test.c:13: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion

It seems that gcc has checked initialization which caused overflow, but do not
check underflow, that is to say:
1 GCC does not check underflow event, at least options -pedantic does not enable
underflow check.
2 If there is some mechanism in GCC internal to check underflow and overflow,
there is a bug in gcc info about the description of -Wextra option.

Could you tell me what I could do to this problem?  Maybe, it is impossible for
me to fix it, but I just want to do something more.  Please give me some
suggestions and I will try to do it.

Thanks.

I think there are some real interesting issues here.
First with -pedantic we get a warning for line 9 but nothing more.  If we add f to the end of the 
constant on line 5, we then get a warning.  

And yes your example was useful. 

The interesting thing is that we don't get a warning for the following code:
  double d1 = 1.9E+308 + 1.;
which should warn.

------- Additional Comments From qiyaoltc at cn dot ibm dot com  2005-08-29 02:57 -------
OK.
GCC version: 3.4.3 20050227 (Red Hat 3.4.3-22.1)
GNU C Library: stable release version 2.3.4
OS : Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 1)

I write a small example named overflow-test.c, here is the source code:

      1 #include<stdio.h>
      2 int main()
      3 {
      4   /* overflow.  */
      5   float f1 = 3.5E+38;
      6   /* underflow.  */
      7   float f2 = 3.3E-46;
      8   /* overflow.  */
      9   double d1 = 1.9E+308;
     10   /* underflow.  */
     11   double d2 = 1.4E-325;
     12   /* overflow, 2**32.  */
     13   int i = 4294967296;
     14
     15   printf("%e,%e,%e,%e\n",f1,f2,d1,d2);
     16   printf("%d\n",i);
     17   return 0;
     18 }

And I compile it like this:
[qiyao@patch]$ gcc -o overflow-test -Wextra -Wall -g overflow-test.c
overflow-test.c: In function `main':
overflow-test.c:13: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type
overflow-test.c:13: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion

I run it,
[qiyao@patch]$ ./overflow-test
inf,0.000000e+00,inf,0.000000e+00
0


I hope this example would be helpful.  Any comments are highly aprreciated!
