Bug ID: 109839
Summary: -Wanalyzer-fd-leak false positive with routine dup2
Product: gcc
Version: 13.1.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: analyzer
Assignee: dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org

test program illustrating false positive with -Wanalyzer-fd-leak
I ran into this problem when compiling GNU Emacs with GCC 13.1.1 20230426 (Red
Hat 13.1.1-1) on x86-64. Compile the attached program (which is a stripped-down
version) with:
gcc -fanalyzer dup2-analyzer.c
The output is as follows. This is a false alarm, as the dup2 is a routine I/O
redirection and should not be considered to be a leak. In typical use, it's
better to not consider dup2's return value to be a leak.
dup2-analyzer.c: In function ‘main’:
dup2-analyzer.c:6:6: warning: leak of file descriptor ‘dup2(1, 2)’ [CWE-775]
[-Wanalyzer-fd-leak]
6 | if (dup2 (STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO) < 0)
| ^
‘main’: events 1-2

| 6 | if (dup2 (STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO) < 0)
