39 /* Module to issue a warning when a program uses data through a type
40 different from the type through which the data were defined.
41 Implements -Wstrict-aliasing and -Wstrict-aliasing=n.
42 These checks only happen when -fstrict-aliasing is present.
44 The idea is to use the compiler to identify occurrences of nonstandard
45 aliasing, and report them to programmers. Programs free of such aliasing
46 are more portable, maintainable, and can usually be optimized better.
48 The current, as of April 2007, C and C++ language standards forbid
49 accessing data of type A through an lvalue of another type B,
50 with certain exceptions. See the C Standard ISO/IEC 9899:1999,
51 section 6.5, paragraph 7, and the C++ Standard ISO/IEC 14882:1998,
52 section 3.10, paragraph 15.
54 Example 1:*a is used as int but was defined as a float, *b.
56 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a);
60 Unfortunately, the problem is in general undecidable if we take into
61 account arithmetic expressions such as array indices or pointer arithmetic.
62 (It is at least as hard as Peano arithmetic decidability.)
63 Even ignoring arithmetic, the problem is still NP-hard, because it is
64 at least as hard as flow-insensitive may-alias analysis, which was proved
65 NP-hard by Horwitz et al, TOPLAS 1997.
67 It is clear that we need to choose some heuristics.
68 Unfortunately, various users have different goals which correspond to
69 different time budgets so a common approach will not suit all.
70 We present the user with three effort/accuracy levels. By accuracy, we mean
71 a common-sense mix of low count of false positives with a
72 reasonably low number of false negatives. We are heavily biased
73 towards a low count of false positives.
74 The effort (compilation time) is likely to increase with the level.
78 Most aggressive, least accurate. Possibly useful when higher levels
79 do not warn but -fstrict-aliasing still breaks the code, as
80 it has very few false negatives.
81 Warn for all bad pointer conversions, even if never dereferenced.
82 Implemented in the front end (c-common.c).
83 Uses alias_sets_might_conflict to compare types.
87 Aggressive, not too precise.
88 May still have many false positives (not as many as level 1 though),
89 and few false negatives (but possibly more than level 1).
90 Runs only in the front end. Uses alias_sets_might_conflict to
91 compare types. Does not check for pointer dereferences.
92 Only warns when an address is taken. Warns about incomplete type punning.
94 -Wstrict-aliasing=3 (default)
96 Should have very few false positives and few false negatives.
97 Takes care of the common punn+dereference pattern in the front end:
99 Takes care of multiple statement cases in the back end,
100 using flow-sensitive points-to information (-O required).
101 Uses alias_sets_conflict_p to compare types and only warns
102 when the converted pointer is dereferenced.
103 Does not warn about incomplete type punning.
105 Future improvements can be included by adding higher levels.
107 In summary, expression level analysis is performed in the front-end,
108 and multiple-statement analysis is performed in the backend.
109 The remainder of this discussion is only about the backend analysis.
111 This implementation uses flow-sensitive points-to information.
112 Flow-sensitivity refers to accesses to the pointer, and not the object
113 pointed. For instance, we do not warn about the following case.
116 int* a = (int*)malloc (...);
117 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a);
119 a = (int*)malloc (...);
122 In SSA, it becomes clear that the INT value *A_2 referenced in the
123 return statement is not aliased to the FLOAT defined through *B_1.
124 int* a_1 = (int*)malloc (...);
125 float* b_1 = reinterpret_cast<float*> (a_1);
127 a_2 = (int*)malloc (...);
134 ForEach (ptr, object) in the points-to table
135 If (incompatible_types (*ptr, object))
136 If (referenced (ptr, current function)
137 and referenced (object, current function))
138 Issue warning (ptr, object, reference locations)
141 O (sizeof (points-to table)
142 + sizeof (function body) * lookup_time (points-to table))
144 Pointer dereference locations are looked up on demand. The search is
145 a single scan of the function body, in which all references to pointers
146 and objects in the points-to table are recorded. However, this dominant
147 time factor occurs rarely, only when cross-type aliasing was detected.
150 Limitations of the Proposed Implementation
151 ==========================================
153 1. We do not catch the following case, because -fstrict-aliasing will
154 associate different tags with MEM while building points-to information,
155 thus before we get to analyze it.
156 XXX: this could be solved by either running with -fno-strict-aliasing
157 or by recording the points-to information before splitting the orignal
161 void* mem = malloc (...);
162 int* pi = reinterpret_cast<int*> (mem);
163 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (mem);
167 2. We do not check whether the two conflicting (de)references can
168 reach each other in the control flow sense. If we fixed limitation
169 1, we would wrongly issue a warning in the following case.
172 void* raw = malloc (...);
174 float* b = reinterpret_cast<float*> (raw);
178 int* a = reinterpret_cast<int*> (raw);
182 3. Only simple types are compared, thus no structures, unions or classes
183 are analyzed. A first attempt to deal with structures introduced much
184 complication and has not showed much improvement in preliminary tests,
187 4. All analysis is intraprocedural. */
