Hi,
I discovered a bug in DMD whereby, during optimisation, the loop index variable is removed, despite being used afterwards. I reproduced the bug in this issue.
Using run.dlang.io, I tried to find a regression, but all supported DMD versions (2.060 and newer) are printing the same incorrect output (Exception: i = 0; n = 1
). My experiment can be found here. This seems to be a backend issue, as both LDC and LDC-beta are working fine.
However, when analysing the CI outputs from the PR which made me come across this bug, I noticed that all 3 of DMD, LDC and GDC are failing the same test, which I've also been able to reproduce myself:
- LDC: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/6291197929979904?logs=test_druntime#L1449
- DMD: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5728247976558592?logs=test_druntime#L1390
- GDC: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/4883823046426624?logs=test_druntime#L1411
The failure of this test is caused by the issue I mentioned above and the code with which I reproduced the bug is based on it.
I am unsure what to make of this, since the logs seem to contradict my experiment with LDC. Has anyone else encountered this? How did you proceed?
Thanks,
Teodor
