Hi,

this is a regression present for 32-bit targets on mainline and 9 branch only, 
but the underlying issue dates back from the removal of the TYPE_IS_SIZETYPE 
machinery.  Since the removal of this machinery, there is an internal conflict 
for sizetype: it's an unsigned type so with wrap-around semantics on overflow 
but overflow nevertheless needs to be tracked for it in order to avoid buffer 
overflows for large objects.

The constant folder contains various tricks to that effect and the Ada front-
end even more so, because VLAs are first-class citizens in the language and 
their lower bound is not necessarily 0.  In particular, you need to be able to 
distinguish large constants in sizetype from small negative constants turned 
into even larger constants, because the latter appear in the length of e.g.:

  type Arr is array (2 .. N) of Long_Long_Integer;

This works when the expressions haven't been too much mangled by the constant 
folder and here we have a counter-example for 32-bit targets.  Starting with:

  (N + 4294967295) * 8

which is the sizetype expression of the size of Arr in bytes, extract_muldiv_1 
distributes the multiplication:

  N * 8 + 4294967288

and, immediately after, fold_plusminus_mult_expr factors it back:

  (N + 536870911) * 8

At this point, there is no way for gigi to tell that it's the expression of a 
simple array with no overflow in sight because the 536870911 constant is large 
but not large enough, so gigi flags it as overflowing for small values of N.

I don't see any other way out than disabling the back-and-forth mathematical 
game played by the constant folder in this case, which very likely brings no 
benefit in practice, hence the proposed fix.

Tested on x86_64-suse-linux, OK for the mainline and 9 branch?

Hmm, ISTR we had such mitigations in place (or have) elsewhere keying
on the most significant bit set instead of power-of-two.  But your case
likely recurses and runs into the extract_multiv limiting to eventually
stop, even for (N + 4) * 8, right?  If so shouldn't we prevent this
even for !TYPE_OVERFLOW_WRAPS?  Also

+         && !(tree_fits_shwi_p (c)
+              && exact_log2 (absu_hwi (tree_to_shwi (c))) > 0))

is better written as

           && exact_log2 (wi::to_wide (c)) > 0

not sure why the sizetype constant for you fits in a signed HWI
or you need to compute its absolute value.  Eventually you
need to use wi::abs(wide_int::from (wi::to_wide (c), TYPE_PRECISION
(TREE_TYPE (c)), SIGNED))
or so.

Thanks,
Richard.

fold_plusminus_mult_expr only factors out for power-of-two:

      if (exact_log2 (absu_hwi (int11)) > 0 && int01 % int11 == 0
	  /* The remainder should not be a constant, otherwise we
	     end up folding i * 4 + 2 to (i * 2 + 1) * 2 which has
	     increased the number of multiplications necessary.  */
	  && TREE_CODE (arg10) != INTEGER_CST)

Yes, it oscillates between extract_multiv and fold_plusminus_mult_expr until 
reaching the maximal depth.

The code only distributes for TYPE_OVERFLOW_WRAPS though:

      /* The last case is if we are a multiply.  In that case, we can
	 apply the distributive law to commute the multiply and addition
	 if the multiplication of the constants doesn't overflow
	 and overflow is defined.  With undefined overflow
	 op0 * c might overflow, while (op0 + orig_op1) * c doesn't.  */
      if (code == MULT_EXPR && TYPE_OVERFLOW_WRAPS (ctype))
	return fold_build2 (tcode, ctype,
			    fold_build2 (code, ctype,
					 fold_convert (ctype, op0),
					 fold_convert (ctype, c)),
			    op1);

This is just mirrored on what fold_plusminus_mult_expr does.

It turns out that pow2p_hwi can be used instead and is cheaper, so I have 
changed both extract_muldiv_1 and fold_plusminus_mult_expr to using it.


	* fold-const.c (extract_muldiv_1) <PLUS_EXPR>: Do not distribute a
	multiplication by a power-of-two value.
	(fold_plusminus_mult_expr): Use pow2p_hwi to detect a power-of-two value
	and turn the modulo operation into a masking operation.

OK, thanks.
