A reproducer which shows how the structure size is incorrectly reported as 0.
For structs which contain very large non-static data members with an explicit
alignment, sizeof can report 0. I believe I have tracked this down to an
overflow in llvm::alignTo from clang/lib/AST/MathExtras.H (clarifying because I
found an alternative implementation in llvm/Support/Alignment.h).
The example struct I have tested is:
struct node {
alignas(2) char data[2305843009213693951u]; //
std::numeric_limits<std::ptrdiff_t>::max() / 4;
};
With this definition, sizeof(node) == 0 even though sizeof(node::data) ==
2305843009213693951u.
In ItaniumRecordLayoutBuilder::FinishLayout, when computing RoundedSize, which
appears to be the final size of the struct, we start with a proper Size and
DataSize of 18446744073709551608 (std::numeric_limits<std::ptrdiff_t>::max() /
4 * 8, where 8 is the number of bits in char on my system). The Alignment also
appears correct at 16 (2 * 8, where 8 is the number of bits in char on my
system).
llvm::alignTo is defined as: (Value + Align - 1 - Skew) / Align * Align + Skew
In this invocation, Skew is 0.
When we take Value + Align, 18446744073709551608 + 16, we overflow and get 8,
which is less than Align and the division truncates to 0.
I would be happy to contribute a patch to either fix this issue, but I am not
sure if this should be corrected in llvm::alignTo or if this case should be
detected earlier and error.
