Subject: [PATCH 5/9] Avoid undefined behavior in parse_number
Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 14:57:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180827145620.11055-6-tom@tromey.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180827145620.11055-1-tom@tromey.com>

-fsanitize=undefined pointed out that c-exp.y relied on undefined
behavior here:

      if (c != 'l' && c != 'u')
	n *= base;

...when a large hex constant "just fit" into a LONGEST, causing the
high bit to be set.

This fixes the problem by having the function work in an unsigned
type.

ChangeLog
2018-08-27  Tom Tromey  <tom@tromey.com>

	* c-exp.y (parse_number): Work in unsigned.  Remove casts.
