            Bug ID: 106068
           Summary: Infinite loop generated with -mcpu=cortex-m7 and -O2
           Product: gcc

Preprocessed src to reproduce bug

We hit this suspected bug compiling an older firmware after recently upgrading
to a more recent version of GCC.  It can be triggered by 11.3.0, while the old
5.4.x version did not produce the infinite loop.

The code snippet is from a quite old version of LWIP (stripped down to the
minimal).  It appears to not be exiting the loop on the second condition (n<2).

The exact command I used to generate the .i is as follows:

  arm-none-eabi-gcc -mcpu=cortex-m7 src/core/dhcp.c -c -save-temps -g -O2


GCC that it definitely fails on is as follows:

arm-none-eabi-gcc -v
