Hi,

while testing, I've got the following werror on s390x when build with gcc 6.1
(or current gcc head) and -O3:
../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/k_rem_pio2.c: In function ‘__kernel_rem_pio2’:
../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/k_rem_pio2.c:254:18: error: array subscript is below
array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]
     for (k = 1; iq[jk - k] == 0; k++)
                 ~~^~~~~~~~

I get the same error with sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/k_rem_pio2f.c.

Does anybody else get this warning on another architecture, too?

This patch adds a check so that the index is always >= 0.

Such an unnecessary check is not how we deal with bogus warnings.
Rather, use the DIAG_*_NEEDS_COMMENT macros from include/libc-internal.h,
with a detailed comment explaining what the warning is and why it is a
false positive.


Sorry for the delay. Here is the updated patch with DIAG_* macros.
Is this okay?

Bye Stefan

ChangeLog:


ChangeLog:

	* sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/k_rem_pio2.c (__kernel_rem_pio2):
	Use DIAG_*_NEEDS_COMMENT macro to get rid of array-bounds
	warning.
	* sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/k_rem_pio2f.c (__kernel_rem_pio2f):
	Likewise.
