This article presents new methods of detecting missed arithmetic optimization opportunities of C compilers by random testing. For each iteration of random testing, a C program containing arithmetic expressions is generated, from which another program, with the expressions optimized in the C program level, is also generated. Lack of optimization on the first program is detected by comparing the two assembly codes compiled from the two C programs. A method of detecting erroneous optimization or insufficient optimization involving volatile variables is also proposed, in which two random programs differing only on the initial values for volatile variables are generated, and the resulting assembly codes are compared. Random test systems implemented based on the proposed methods have detected missed optimization opportunities on several compilers, including the latest development versions of GCC-5.0.0 and LLVM/Clang-3.6. |
