cc Aldy Hernandez <aldyh@redhat.com> and Andrew MacLeod <amacleod@redhat.com>,
they are author of new VRP analysis for GCC, just to make sure I didn't
mis-understanding or mis-interpreting anything on GCC site.
GCC 11 have better value range analysis, that give GCC more confidence
to perform more aggressive optimization, but it cause scalbn/scalbnf get
wrong result.
Using scalbn to demostrate what happened on GCC 11, see comments with VRP
prefix:
```c
double scalbn (double x, int n)
{
/* VRP RESULT: n = [-INF, +INF] */
__int32_t k,hx,lx;
...
k = (hx&0x7ff00000)>>20;
/* VRP RESULT: k = [0, 2047] */
if (k==0) {
/* VRP RESULT: k = 0 */
...
k = ((hx&0x7ff00000)>>20) - 54;
if (n< -50000) return tiny*x; /*underflow*/
/* VRP RESULT: k = -54 */
}
/* VRP RESULT: k = [-54, 2047] */
if (k==0x7ff) return x+x; /* NaN or Inf */
/* VRP RESULT: k = [-54, 2046] */
k = k+n;
if (k > 0x7fe) return huge*copysign(huge,x); /* overflow */
/* VRP RESULT: k = [-INF, 2046] */
/* VRP RESULT: n = [-INF, 2100],
because k + n <= 0x7fe is false, so:
1. -INF < [-54, 2046] + n <= 0x7fe(2046) < INF
2. -INF < [-54, 2046] + n <= 2046 < INF
3. -INF < n <= 2046 - [-54, 2046] < INF
4. -INF < n <= [0, 2100] < INF
5. n = [-INF, 2100] */
if (k > 0) /* normal result */
{SET_HIGH_WORD(x,(hx&0x800fffff)|(k<<20)); return x;}
if (k <= -54) {
/* VRP OPT: Evaluate n > 50000 as true...*/
if (n > 50000) /* in case integer overflow in n+k */
return huge*copysign(huge,x); /*overflow*/
else return tiny*copysign(tiny,x); /*underflow*/
}
k += 54; /* subnormal result */
SET_HIGH_WORD(x,(hx&0x800fffff)|(k<<20));
return x*twom54;
}
```
However give the input n = INT32_MAX, k = k+n will overflow, and then we
expect got `huge*copysign(huge,x)`, but new VRP optimization think
`n > 50000` is never be true, so optimize that into `tiny*copysign(tiny,x)`.
so the solution here is to moving the overflow handle logic before `k = k + n`.

README
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
