From: "muecker at gwdg dot de" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org> To: gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org Subject: [Bug c/108931] New: conditional operator for variably modified types Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2023 12:38:46 +0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <bug-108931-4@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/> (raw) https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108931 Bug ID: 108931 Summary: conditional operator for variably modified types Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: muecker at gwdg dot de Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 54536 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=54536&action=edit patch against trunk For conditional operators with size expressions in both branches, the behavior is erratic. While this seems to be undefined behavior (although it shouldn't be), it is surprising and my cause subtle bugs, e.g. when using such casts or statement expressions in macros. Also it seems easy to fix by always evaluating the size of the active branch only and taking this size for the result. For example, in some cases size expressions from both branches are evaluated: int foo(void) { return sizeof(*(0 ? (char(*)[f()])0 : (char(*)[g()])0)); } foo: sub rsp, 8 call g call f add rsp, 8 ret In other cases size from an unevaluated branch is taken as the result: https://godbolt.org/z/o74e7T16x
