Description Klemen Mihevc 2021-05-03 17:32:58 UTC
today dhcp recompiled with gcc 11.1, because libressl was removed (didnt used it) and i noticed that at least half of my devices stopped getting ip. there was absolutely no errors during compile phase, or there isnt any definite errors in syslog from dhcp, however as soon as i reverted back to gcc 10.3 and recompiled dhcp, everything started to work again, funny thing is, not every device was affected... just about 2/3 of them...

considering my gentoo is also my main router i dont have days to figure out why its not working, however there is defiantly something wrong with dhcp compiled with gcc 11.1 

Reproducible: Always

A log from compiling with gcc 11 may be useful as well as runtime logs.

Also, just to note..

Really, for something critical like this, you should be using stable, which would not have GCC 11 yet.

And I also suggest you try with -O2 given that -O3 has a tendency to cause problems with code containing undefined behaviour in C.

Well I dont mind if something breaks for couple of hours, its just annoying when family members are starting to complain that internet is not working :)

Anyway maybe ill have couple oh hours tomorrow when nobody will be using internet and im gonna try suggested things.

syslog for example for DHCP doesnt offer anything, just discover and offer spam like this:

You are right, when i compiled dhcp with gcc11 and -O2 instead of -O3 it works, but it also works with gcc10 and -O3, so there is still something funky going on.... anyway ill attach both build logs if it helps.

Comment 8 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-05-10 08:03:38 UTC
Does the bug happen without -march=native?

Chances are that gcc is now able to optimise things more aggressively and is able to expose latent bugs in the programs.

Typical suspects for gcc-11 are -fipa-modref -fstrict-aliasing.

You can try to build dhcp with `-O3 -fno-ipa-modref` and `-O3 -fno-strict-aliasing` to check if that alone is enough to trigger working/broken state.

Otherwise you can try to find minimum amount of -O3 flags needed to be added to -O2 to see failures. Can be extracted with:
    $ diff -U0 <(LANG=C gcc -O2 -Q --help=optimizers) <(LANG=C gcc -O3 -Q --help=optimizers)

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gcc-ICE-reporting-guide#.5Bbonus.5D_minimize_needed_flags_to_reproduce_failure

Narrowing flags down will simplify inspection of generated code.

Yes -O3 -fno-strict-aliasing produces working dhcp for me i also attached log if it help.

Aha, that's useful!

Fun fact: upstream ./configure already tries to use -fno-strict-aliasing when compiling some .c files, but does not apply it everywhere.

I did notice that in log yes, thats why i was surprised it makes a difference at all, however i didnt notice its not applied to everything...

    net-misc/dhcp: avoid undefined/broken runtime behaviour with -O3
    
    -fstrict-aliasing (enabled by -O3) breaks code within dhcp
    which violates the no-strict-aliasing rule. So, let's tag on
    an option to avoid assuming that rule / avoid the optimisation
    which is unsafe here.

OK nothing to be done here anymore.
