Subject: [PATCH] tree-object-size: Fix type-1 size for pointers to FAM-containing subobjects [PR126975]
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 15:29:03 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aojDH2Db6XIkVqcf@kspp> (raw)

For a pointer to a subobject whose record/union type ends in a flexible-array
member (directly, or through its trailing nested struct), addr_object_size()
walked up to the enclosing object (v = TREE_OPERAND (v, 0)) instead of
measuring the referenced subobject. __builtin_object_size() and
__builtin_dynamic_object_size() type 1 therefore returned the whole-object
size, collapsing type 1 onto type 0 and losing the distinction between
&p->inner and p. FORTIFY_SOURCE relies on the type-1 distinction, so this
weakens its bounds checks.

Fix this by computing the size directly from the referenced record/union
instead of walking up, restoring the type-0/type-1 distinction that Clang
already implements.

Bootstraped and regtested on x86_64-linux-gnu.

	PR tree-optimization/126975

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* tree-object-size.cc (addr_object_size): For a reference to a
	record or union type, compute the object size from the referenced
	subobject instead of walking up to the enclosing object when the
	type recursively includes a flexible array member.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gcc.dg/builtin-object-size-pr101832.c (main): Update the expected
	results of __builtin_object_size (..., 1) queries on subobjects
	whose type contains a flexible array member.
