  1. Replace

if ((((uintptr_t) &_d) & (__alignof (double) - 1)) != 0)

which may be optimized by compiler, with

static int
__attribute__ ((noclone, noinline))
aligned (void *p, int align)
{
  return (((uintptr_t) p) & (align - 1)) != 0;
}

2. Add TEST_STACK_ALIGN_INIT to TEST_STACK_ALIGN.
3. Add a common TEST_STACK_ALIGN_INIT to check 16-byte stack alignment
for both i386 and x86-64.

I think you need to use __attribute__ ((weak)) (and drop the static) for
a fully effective compiler barrier.  Due to the new global nature of the
symbol, you probably should switch to a different identifier less prone
to collisions.

GCC 8 also supports the noipa attribute, but that's too recent for us.

Thanks,
Florian

... at which point it's cleaner to use a non-transparent copy:

  uintptr_t p_repr;

  asm("" : "=r"(p_repr) : "0"(p));

  return (p_repr & (align - 1)) != 0;


But in any case this should not be needed. The patch does not seems to explain
the motivation properly (in general a pointer may be arbitrarily misaligned,
the compiler needs to see either the object from which the pointer is derived,
or a dereference of the pointer to make any assumptions about its alignment).

Ah, looking once again at the diffs I see that's because existing tests were
too naive and completely ineffective.

I changed it to

int
__attribute__ ((weak, noclone, noinline))
is_aligned (void *p, int align)
{
  return (((uintptr_t) p) & (align - 1)) != 0;
}

I sent out the v2 patch.
