Hi Prathamesh, Thanks for the report, I am running on a x86_64_linux_gnu and never had to cross-compile before. I've tried to set it up and reproduce your errors, please tell me if I'm off the mark. I configured gcc as: ../gcc/configure --prefix $CONTROL_PFX --disable-bootstrap --host=x86_64-linux-gnu --target=arm-eabi --enable-languages=c --with-newlib Then from the patch 7997f0d35efca8a24d1b0ceae5066b1019d633d7 prior to mine, *I ran the tests manually as arm-sim refused to work*: $GCC_SRC/control/eabi_arm_build/gcc/xgcc -B$GCC_SRC/control//eabi_arm_build/gcc \ ../../gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/analyzer/null-deref-pr108251-smp_fetch_ssl_fc_has_early.c \ -fanalyzer -Wanalyzer-too-complex -fanalyzer-call-summaries and $GCC_SRC/control/eabi_arm_build/gcc/xgcc -B$GCC_SRC/control//eabi_arm_build/gcc \ ../../gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/analyzer/null-deref-pr108251-smp_fetch_ssl_fc_has_early-O2.c \ -fanalyzer -Wanalyzer-too-complex -fanalyzer-call-summaries -O2 From my patch, I ran similar commands, only s/gcc.dg/c-c++-common/ as the patch moved the tests there. The output were *identical*, for both pre/post-patched. I do agree with you that there is an excess error compared to x86_64-linux-gnu and the test expectations. ../../gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/analyzer/null-deref-pr108251-smp_fetch_ssl_fc_has_early.c:63:65: warning: converting a packed ‘enum obj_type’ pointer (alignment 1) to a ‘struct connection’ pointer (alignment 4) may result in an unaligned pointer value [-Waddress-of-packed-member] 63 | return ((struct connection *)(((void *)(t)) - ((long)&((struct connection *)0)->obj_type))); | ^~~~~~~~~~ ../../gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/analyzer/null-deref-pr108251-smp_fetch_ssl_fc_has_early.c:31:6: note: defined here 31 | enum obj_type { | ^~~~~~~~ ../../gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/analyzer/null-deref-pr108251-smp_fetch_ssl_fc_has_early.c:47:8: note: defined here 47 | struct connection { | ^~~~~~~~~~ Therefore I do also see a regression, but it does not come from 55f6a7d949abc708d1c6ebc01eb3053f96d1472b. It seems like an easy fix though and I will add it to the second part of this patch. However I did run the tests manually, rather than with make check-gcc as it failed to run - an issue with stdio not found. I'm attending this issue and will further update you in case the conclusion of this mail changes. Thanks again, Benjamin.
