Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler
Hello.
I have been all days struggling with a problem we have in one of our products.
We are currently using C++ compiler version 18.12.3, but I checked is still present in 18.12.4 and 19.6.0. The problem only arises when we acivate basic optimizations (-O0), and works correctly without optimizations.
To reproduce it I executed this simple code:
struct Data
{
int r0;
int r1;
};
void test(float a, float b, Data& data)
{
float ab = 0.0F;
data.r0 = 0;
data.r1 = 0;
if(a<b)
{
b = a;
ab = a;
data.r0 = 1+ab;
data.r1 = 1;
}
}
int main()
{
float a = 3.5F;
Data d0;
test(a, a, d0);
}
When calling "test" with different numbers, it behaves correctly, but when numbers are equal (3.5 i.e.) data will be "half filled".
Calling with 3.5, I will expect d0 to be = {0, 0} as the numbers are equal. I could also expect d0 to be { 4,1 }, but I got d0 == {1, 1}
So it executes just some code inside the "if" of the "test".
The problem is solved by reordering some instructions inside the "if" or adding a NOP in the beggining of it.
