Summary

0001281: do { ... } while (0) pattern causes wp to fail

Description

The pattern do { ... } while (0) is used in a number of standard headers to allow pre-processor macros to introduce a scope and still look like a statement (you can put a semi-colon after them). This translates to something like while(1) { ...; break; } as in the following /*@ requires \valid(x); @ ensures \result == 0; */ int foo(int *x) { /* loop invariant 0 == 0; */ while( 1 ) { *x = 0; break; } return *x; } which fails with $ frama-c -wp do_while_test.c [kernel] preprocessing with "gcc -C -E -I. do_while_test.c" [wp] Running WP plugin... [wp] Collecting axiomatic usage [wp] warning: Missing RTE guards do_while_test.c:6:[wp] warning: calculus failed on strategy for 'foo', behavior 'default!', all properties, both assigns or not because unsupported non-natural loop without invariant property. (abort) [wp] 0 goal scheduled It looks like the unconditional break (i.e., the results of optimising if (!0) break; from the translation of the 'do') causes the cil2cfg pass to throw out some loop edges, causing the above error.
