@section How and where to Report Bugs
@cindex compiler bugs, reporting
The fundamental principle of reporting bugs usefully is this:
@strong{report all the facts}. If you are not sure whether to state a
fact or leave it out, state it!
Often people omit facts because they think they know what causes the
problem and they conclude that some details don't matter. Thus, you might
assume that the name of the variable you use in an example does not matter.
Well, probably it doesn't, but one cannot be sure. Perhaps the bug is a
stray memory reference which happens to fetch from the location where that
name is stored in memory; perhaps, if the name were different, the contents
of that location would fool the compiler into doing the right thing despite
the bug. Play it safe and give a specific, complete example. That is the
easiest thing for you to do, and the most helpful.
Keep in mind that the purpose of a bug report is to enable someone to
fix the bug if it is not known. It isn't very important what happens if
the bug is already known. Therefore, always write your bug reports on
the assumption that the bug is not known.
Sometimes people give a few sketchy facts and ask, ``Does this ring a
bell?'' This cannot help us fix a bug, so it is basically useless. We
respond by asking for enough details to enable us to investigate.
You might as well expedite matters by sending them to begin with.
Try to make your bug report self-contained. If we have to ask you for
more information, it is best if you include all the previous information
in your response, as well as the information that was missing.
Please report each bug in a separate message. This makes it easier for
us to track which bugs have been fixed and to forward your bugs reports
to the appropriate maintainer.
To enable someone to investigate the bug, you should include all these
things:
@itemize @bullet
@item
The version of GCC@. You can get this by running it with the
@option{-v} option.
Without this, we won't know whether there is any point in looking for
the bug in the current version of GCC@.
@item
A complete input file that will reproduce the bug. If the bug is in the
C preprocessor, send a source file and any header files that it
requires. If the bug is in the compiler proper (@file{cc1}), send the
preprocessor output generated by adding @option{-save-temps} to the
compilation command (@pxref{Debugging Options}). When you do this, use
the same @option{-I}, @option{-D} or @option{-U} options that you used in
actual compilation. Then send the @var{input}.i or @var{input}.ii files
generated.
A single statement is not enough of an example. In order to compile it,
it must be embedded in a complete file of compiler input; and the bug
might depend on the details of how this is done.
Without a real example one can compile, all anyone can do about your bug
report is wish you luck. It would be futile to try to guess how to
provoke the bug. For example, bugs in register allocation and reloading
frequently depend on every little detail of the function they happen in.
Even if the input file that fails comes from a GNU program, you should
still send the complete test case. Don't ask the GCC maintainers to
do the extra work of obtaining the program in question---they are all
overworked as it is. Also, the problem may depend on what is in the
header files on your system; it is unreliable for the GCC maintainers
to try the problem with the header files available to them. By sending
CPP output, you can eliminate this source of uncertainty and save us
a certain percentage of wild goose chases.
@item
The command arguments you gave GCC to compile that example
and observe the bug. For example, did you use @option{-O}? To guarantee
you won't omit something important, list all the options.
If we were to try to guess the arguments, we would probably guess wrong
and then we would not encounter the bug.
@item
The type of machine you are using, and the operating system name and
version number.
@item
The operands you gave to the @code{configure} command when you installed
the compiler.
@item
A complete list of any modifications you have made to the compiler
source. (We don't promise to investigate the bug unless it happens in
an unmodified compiler. But if you've made modifications and don't tell
us, then you are sending us on a wild goose chase.)
Be precise about these changes. A description in English is not
enough---send a context diff for them.
Adding files of your own (such as a machine description for a machine we
don't support) is a modification of the compiler source.
@item
Details of any other deviations from the standard procedure for installing
GCC@.
@item
A description of what behavior you observe that you believe is
incorrect. For example, ``The compiler gets a fatal signal,'' or,
``The assembler instruction at line 208 in the output is incorrect.''
Of course, if the bug is that the compiler gets a fatal signal, then one
can't miss it. But if the bug is incorrect output, the maintainer might
not notice unless it is glaringly wrong. None of us has time to study
all the assembler code from a 50-line C program just on the chance that
one instruction might be wrong. We need @emph{you} to do this part!
Even if the problem you experience is a fatal signal, you should still
say so explicitly. Suppose something strange is going on, such as, your
copy of the compiler is out of synch, or you have encountered a bug in
the C library on your system. (This has happened!) Your copy might
crash and the copy here would not. If you @i{said} to expect a crash,
then when the compiler here fails to crash, we would know that the bug
was not happening. If you don't say to expect a crash, then we would
not know whether the bug was happening. We would not be able to draw
any conclusion from our observations.
If the problem is a diagnostic when compiling GCC with some other
compiler, say whether it is a warning or an error.
Often the observed symptom is incorrect output when your program is run.
Sad to say, this is not enough information unless the program is short
and simple. None of us has time to study a large program to figure out
how it would work if compiled correctly, much less which line of it was
compiled wrong. So you will have to do that. Tell us which source line
it is, and what incorrect result happens when that line is executed. A
person who understands the program can find this as easily as finding a
bug in the program itself.
@item
If you send examples of assembler code output from GCC,
please use @option{-g} when you make them. The debugging information
includes source line numbers which are essential for correlating the
output with the input.
@item
If you wish to mention something in the GCC source, refer to it by
context, not by line number.
The line numbers in the development sources don't match those in your
sources. Your line numbers would convey no useful information to the
maintainers.
@item
Additional information from a debugger might enable someone to find a
problem on a machine which he does not have available. However, you
need to think when you collect this information if you want it to have
any chance of being useful.
@cindex backtrace for bug reports
For example, many people send just a backtrace, but that is never
useful by itself. A simple backtrace with arguments conveys little
about GCC because the compiler is largely data-driven; the same
functions are called over and over for different RTL insns, doing
different things depending on the details of the insn.
Most of the arguments listed in the backtrace are useless because they
are pointers to RTL list structure. The numeric values of the
pointers, which the debugger prints in the backtrace, have no
significance whatever; all that matters is the contents of the objects
they point to (and most of the contents are other such pointers).
In addition, most compiler passes consist of one or more loops that
scan the RTL insn sequence. The most vital piece of information about
such a loop---which insn it has reached---is usually in a local variable,
not in an argument.
@findex debug_rtx
What you need to provide in addition to a backtrace are the values of
the local variables for several stack frames up. When a local
variable or an argument is an RTX, first print its value and then use
the GDB command @code{pr} to print the RTL expression that it points
to. (If GDB doesn't run on your machine, use your debugger to call
the function @code{debug_rtx} with the RTX as an argument.) In
general, whenever a variable is a pointer, its value is no use
without the data it points to.
@end itemize
Here are some things that are not necessary:
@itemize @bullet
@item
A description of the envelope of the bug.
Often people who encounter a bug spend a lot of time investigating
which changes to the input file will make the bug go away and which
changes will not affect it.
This is often time consuming and not very useful, because the way we
will find the bug is by running a single example under the debugger with
breakpoints, not by pure deduction from a series of examples. You might
as well save your time for something else.
Of course, if you can find a simpler example to report @emph{instead} of
the original one, that is a convenience. Errors in the output will be
easier to spot, running under the debugger will take less time, etc.
Most GCC bugs involve just one function, so the most straightforward
way to simplify an example is to delete all the function definitions
except the one where the bug occurs. Those earlier in the file may be
replaced by external declarations if the crucial function depends on
them. (Exception: inline functions may affect compilation of functions
defined later in the file.)
However, simplification is not vital; if you don't want to do this,
report the bug anyway and send the entire test case you used.
@item
In particular, some people insert conditionals @samp{#ifdef BUG} around
a statement which, if removed, makes the bug not happen. These are just
clutter; we won't pay any attention to them anyway. Besides, you should
send us cpp output, and that can't have conditionals.
@item
A patch for the bug.
A patch for the bug is useful if it is a good one. But don't omit the
necessary information, such as the test case, on the assumption that a
patch is all we need. We might see problems with your patch and decide
to fix the problem another way, or we might not understand it at all.
Sometimes with a program as complicated as GCC it is very hard to
construct an example that will make the program follow a certain path
through the code. If you don't send the example, we won't be able to
construct one, so we won't be able to verify that the bug is fixed.
And if we can't understand what bug you are trying to fix, or why your
patch should be an improvement, we won't install it. A test case will
help us to understand.
See @uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html}
for guidelines on how to make it easy for us to
understand and install your patches.
@item
A guess about what the bug is or what it depends on.
Such guesses are usually wrong. Even I can't guess right about such
things without first using the debugger to find the facts.
@item
A core dump file.
We have no way of examining a core dump for your type of machine
unless we have an identical system---and if we do have one,
we should be able to reproduce the crash ourselves.

@section The gccbug script
@cindex gccbug script
To simplify creation of bug reports, and to allow better tracking of
reports, we use the GNATS bug tracking system. Part of that system is
the @command{gccbug} script. This is a Unix shell script, so you need a
shell to run it. It is normally installed in the same directory where
@command{gcc} is installed.
The gccbug script is derived from send-pr, @pxref{using
send-pr,,Creating new Problem Reports,send-pr,Reporting Problems}. When
invoked, it starts a text editor so you can fill out the various fields
of the report. When the you quit the editor, the report is automatically
send to the bug reporting address.
A number of fields in this bug report form are specific to GCC, and are
explained at @uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/gnats.html}.
Bugs should be reported to our bug database. Please refer to
@uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html} for up-to-date instructions how to
submit bug reports. Copies of this file in HTML (@file{bugs.html}) and
plain text (@file{BUGS}) are also part of GCC releases.

Often people think of posting bug reports to a newsgroup instead of
mailing them.
This sometimes appears to work, but it has one problem which can be
crucial: a newsgroup posting does not contain a mail path back to the
sender.
Thus, if maintainers need more information, they might be unable
to reach you. For this reason, you should always send bug reports by
mail to the proper mailing list.

Please report each bug in a separate message.
This makes it easier for
us to track which bugs have been fixed and to forward your bugs reports

Do not compress and encode any part of your bug report using programs
such as @file{uuencode}.
If you do so it will slow down the processing
of your bug.
If you must submit multiple large files, use @file{shar},
which allows us to read your message without having to run any
decompression programs.
(As a special exception for GNU Fortran bug-reporting, at least
for now, if you are sending more than a few lines of code, if
your program's source file format contains ``interesting'' things
like trailing spaces or strange characters, or if you need to
include binary data files, it is acceptable to put all the
files together in a @command{tar} archive, and, whether you need to
do that, it is acceptable to then compress the single file (@command{tar}
archive or source file)
using @command{gzip} and encode it via @command{uuencode}.
Do not use any MIME stuff---the current maintainer can't decode this.
Using @command{compress} instead of @command{gzip} is acceptable, assuming
you have licensed the use of the patented algorithm in
@command{compress} from Unisys.)
To enable someone to investigate the bug, you should include all these
things:

@item

You can get this by running @command{g77} with the @option{-v} option.
(Ignore any error messages that might be displayed

the bug in the current version of GNU Fortran.
@item
@cindex preprocessor
@cindex cpp program
@cindex programs, cpp
@pindex cpp
A complete input file that will reproduce the bug.
If your source file(s) require preprocessing
(for example, their names have suffixes like
@samp{.F}, @samp{.fpp}, @samp{.FPP}, and @samp{.r}),
and the bug is in the compiler proper (@file{f771})
or in a subsequent phase of processing,
run your source file through the C preprocessor
by doing @samp{g77 -E @var{sourcefile} > @var{newfile}}.
Then, include the contents of @var{newfile} in the bug report.
(When you do this, use the same preprocessor options---such as
@option{-I}, @option{-D}, and @option{-U}---that you used in actual
compilation.)
A single statement is not enough of an example.
In order to compile it,

Note that you should include with your bug report any files

that you send, and any files they include, and so on.
It is not necessary to replace
the @code{#include} and @code{INCLUDE} directives
with the actual files in the version of the source file that
you send, but it might make submitting the bug report easier
in the end.
However, be sure to @emph{reproduce} the bug using the @emph{exact}

chases.

And if we can't understand what bug you are trying to fix, or why your
patch should be an improvement, we won't install it. A test case will
help us to understand.
See @uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html}
for guidelines on how to make it easy for us to
understand and install your patches.
@item
A guess about what the bug is or what it depends on.
Such guesses are usually wrong. Even the maintainer can't guess right
about such things without first using the debugger to find the facts.
@item
A core dump file.
We have no way of examining a core dump for your type of machine
unless we have an identical system---and if we do have one,
we should be able to reproduce the crash ourselves.
