Description

Building ffmpeg-2.5.4 by gcc-4.9.2 I'v got this messages:
libavcodec/atrac3plus.c:1784:46: warning: array subscript is below array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
libavcodec/libx264.c:658:35: warning: the address of ‘val’ will always evaluate as ‘true’ [-Waddress]

First one is because of strange condition in atrac3plus.c:1771

warning elimination patch

comment:1 by Mirraz, 9 years ago

Propose patch that eliminates compilation warning in atrac3plus.c. Actually warning disappears only if I place accessing to trac3p_qu_to_subband[ctx->num_quant_units - 1] before calling decode_quant_wordlen(). But I changed strange condition in atrac3plus.c:1771 anyway (maybe I was wrong).

  1. Please send patches to ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org
  2. That warning is bogus from an IRC discussion some time ago (can't find the log…), so this patch is wrong.

OK, you are right, condition is not "strange", it complies to specification which I found here: http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=ATRAC3plus. My mistake.
But this warning is not bogus, warning appears because compiler discards its suggestion about "ctx->num_quant_units" (1<=num_quant_units<=32) when "ctx" passed to "decode_quant_wordlen(gb, ctx, num_channels, avctx)" and anything can happen to fields of "ctx".
Corrected patch was sent to ffmpeg-devel.

These appear to be compiler bugs or limitations
