Bug ID: 64811
Summary: fold_inf_compare bogus for NaNs (given
-ftrapping-math)
Product: gcc
Version: 4.9.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: wrong-code
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: tree-optimization
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jsm28 at gcc dot gnu.org
Various optimizations in fold_inf_compare can cause "invalid" floating-point
exceptions to be present when they should be absent, or vice versa.
Folding x > +Inf to 0 should not be about HONOR_SNANS - ordered comparisons of
both quiet and signaling NaNs should raise invalid. So if -ftrapping-math and
HONOR_NANS, this is invalid (given a strict interpretation of -ftrapping-math,
anyway).
x <= +Inf is not the same as x == x, because again that loses an exception
(equality comparisons don't raise exceptions except for signaling NaNs).
x == +Inf is not the same as x > DBL_MAX, and a similar issue applies with the
x != +Inf case - that transformation causes a spurious exception (in
particular, I've seen this in __gcc_qadd for powerpc-linux-gnu soft-float,
causing glibc testsuite failures, which is how I found this bug), not just a
missing exception. (The existing HONOR_NANS code for NE_EXPR is only about the
result, not the exceptions raised.)
