c++: Implement -Wrange-loop-construct [PR94695]
This new warning can be used to prevent expensive copies inside range-based for-loops, for instance: struct S { char arr[128]; }; void fn () { S arr[5]; for (const auto x : arr) { } } where auto deduces to S and then we copy the big S in every iteration. Using "const auto &x" would not incur such a copy. With this patch the compiler will warn: q.C:4:19: warning: loop variable 'x' creates a copy from type 'const S' [-Wrange-loop-construct] 4 | for (const auto x : arr) { } | ^ q.C:4:19: note: use reference type 'const S&' to prevent copying 4 | for (const auto x : arr) { } | ^ | & As per Clang, this warning is suppressed for trivially copyable types whose size does not exceed 64B. The tricky part of the patch was how to figure out if using a reference would have prevented a copy. To that point, I'm using the new function called ref_conv_binds_directly_p. This warning is enabled by -Wall. Further warnings of similar nature should follow soon. gcc/c-family/ChangeLog: PR c++/94695 * c.opt (Wrange-loop-construct): New option. gcc/cp/ChangeLog: PR c++/94695 * call.c (ref_conv_binds_directly_p): New function. * cp-tree.h (ref_conv_binds_directly_p): Declare. * parser.c (warn_for_range_copy): New function.
