38 /* Module to issue a warning when a program uses data through a type
39 different from the type through which the data were defined.
40 Implements -Wstrict-aliasing and -Wstrict-aliasing=n.
41 These checks only happen when -fstrict-aliasing is present.
43 The idea is to use the compiler to identify occurrences of nonstandard
44 aliasing, and report them to programmers. Programs free of such aliasing
45 are more portable, maintainable, and can usually be optimized better.
47 The current, as of April 2007, C and C++ language standards forbid
48 accessing data of type A through an lvalue of another type B,
49 with certain exceptions. See the C Standard ISO/IEC 9899:1999,
50 section 6.5, paragraph 7, and the C++ Standard ISO/IEC 14882:1998,
51 section 3.10, paragraph 15.
53 Example 1:*a is used as int but was defined as a float, *b.
54 int* a = ...;
55 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a);
56 *b = 2.0;
57 return *a
59 Unfortunately, the problem is in general undecidable if we take into
60 account arithmetic expressions such as array indices or pointer arithmetic.
61 (It is at least as hard as Peano arithmetic decidability.)
62 Even ignoring arithmetic, the problem is still NP-hard, because it is
63 at least as hard as flow-insensitive may-alias analysis, which was proved
64 NP-hard by Horwitz et al, TOPLAS 1997.
66 It is clear that we need to choose some heuristics.
67 Unfortunately, various users have different goals which correspond to
68 different time budgets so a common approach will not suit all.
69 We present the user with three effort/accuracy levels. By accuracy, we mean
70 a common-sense mix of low count of false positives with a
71 reasonably low number of false negatives. We are heavily biased
72 towards a low count of false positives.
73 The effort (compilation time) is likely to increase with the level.
75 -Wstrict-aliasing=1
76 ===================
77 Most aggressive, least accurate. Possibly useful when higher levels
78 do not warn but -fstrict-aliasing still breaks the code, as
79 it has very few false negatives.
80 Warn for all bad pointer conversions, even if never dereferenced.
81 Implemented in the front end (c-common.c).
82 Uses alias_sets_might_conflict to compare types.
84 -Wstrict-aliasing=2
85 ===================
86 Aggressive, not too precise.
87 May still have many false positives (not as many as level 1 though),
88 and few false negatives (but possibly more than level 1).
89 Runs only in the front end. Uses alias_sets_might_conflict to
90 compare types. Does not check for pointer dereferences.
91 Only warns when an address is taken. Warns about incomplete type punning.
93 -Wstrict-aliasing=3 (default)
94 ===================
95 Should have very few false positives and few false negatives.
96 Takes care of the common punn+dereference pattern in the front end:
97 *(int*)&some_float.
98 Takes care of multiple statement cases in the back end,
99 using flow-sensitive points-to information (-O required).
100 Uses alias_sets_conflict_p to compare types and only warns
101 when the converted pointer is dereferenced.
102 Does not warn about incomplete type punning.
104 Future improvements can be included by adding higher levels.
106 In summary, expression level analysis is performed in the front-end,
107 and multiple-statement analysis is performed in the backend.
108 The remainder of this discussion is only about the backend analysis.
110 This implementation uses flow-sensitive points-to information.
111 Flow-sensitivity refers to accesses to the pointer, and not the object
112 pointed. For instance, we do not warn about the following case.
114 Example 2.
115 int* a = (int*)malloc (...);
116 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a);
117 *b = 2.0;
118 a = (int*)malloc (...);
119 return *a;
121 In SSA, it becomes clear that the INT value *A_2 referenced in the
122 return statement is not aliased to the FLOAT defined through *B_1.
123 int* a_1 = (int*)malloc (...);
124 float* b_1 = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a_1);
125 *b_1 = 2.0;
126 a_2 = (int*)malloc (...);
127 return *a_2;
130 Algorithm Outline
131 =================
133 ForEach (ptr, object) in the points-to table
134 If (incompatible_types (*ptr, object))
135 If (referenced (ptr, current function)
136 and referenced (object, current function))
137 Issue warning (ptr, object, reference locations)
139 The complexity is:
140 O (sizeof (points-to table)
141 + sizeof (function body) * lookup_time (points-to table))
143 Pointer dereference locations are looked up on demand. The search is
144 a single scan of the function body, in which all references to pointers
145 and objects in the points-to table are recorded. However, this dominant
146 time factor occurs rarely, only when cross-type aliasing was detected.
149 Limitations of the Proposed Implementation
150 ==========================================
152 1. We do not catch the following case, because -fstrict-aliasing will
153 associate different tags with MEM while building points-to information,
154 thus before we get to analyze it.
155 XXX: this could be solved by either running with -fno-strict-aliasing
156 or by recording the points-to information before splitting the original
157 tag based on type.
159 Example 3.
160 void* mem = malloc (...);
161 int* pi = reinterpret_cast<int*> (mem);
162 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (mem);
163 *b = 2.0;
164 return *pi+1;
166 2. We do not check whether the two conflicting (de)references can
167 reach each other in the control flow sense. If we fixed limitation
168 1, we would wrongly issue a warning in the following case.
170 Example 4.
171 void* raw = malloc (...);
172 if (...) {
173 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (raw);
174 *b = 2.0;
175 return (int)*b;
176 } else {
177 int* a = reinterpret_cast<int*> (raw);
178 *a = 1;
179 return *a;
181 3. Only simple types are compared, thus no structures, unions or classes
182 are analyzed. A first attempt to deal with structures introduced much
183 complication and has not showed much improvement in preliminary tests,
184 so it was left out.
186 4. All analysis is intraprocedural. */
