[Sema] Suppress additional warnings for C's zero initializer

Summary

D28148 relaxed some checks for assigning { 0 } to a structure for all C standards, but it failed to handle structures with non-integer subobjects. Relax -Wmissing-braces checks for such structures, and add some additional tests.

This fixes PR39931.

This looks reasonable to fix the problem at hand, but would it handle nested structures too?

struct s1 {
   short f1;  // "int f1" is fine.
};
struct s2 {
   struct s1 f2;
   int x;
};
struct s3 {
   struct s2 f3;
   int x;
};
struct s2 x1 = {0};
struct s3 x2 = {0};

produces this AST (clang-check -ast-dump x.c --):

|-VarDecl 0x55e7bbc60390 <line:13:1, col:18> col:11 x1 'struct s2':'struct s2' cinit

Such nested structures work fine (no warnings generated).

Thanks, I have also verified this patch against the above test case.

Thanks for reviewing! I don't have commit access, so I can't commit this patch myself.

Use Expr::IgnoreImplicit rather than checking for an ImplicitCastExpr here:

const IntegerLiteral *Lit = dyn_cast<IntegerLiteral>(getInit(0)->IgnoreImplicit());
al3xtjames updated this revision to Diff 200159.EditedMay 18 2019, 5:01 PM

Switched to using Expr::IgnoreImplicit() instead of manually checking for an ImplicitCastExpr.

Verified again!

@rsmith Are you happy with the changes, is it ready to be merged?

@rsmith The latest patch version has addressed your feedback, can you confirm that this is ready to be merged?

@al3xtjames I was about to commit this but noticed that some others check whether getInit(0) is NULL or not before proceeding. Should that be done here as well? If not, why?

See for example "Harden InitListExpr::isStringLiteralInit() against getInit() returning null." in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/256bd96d1c2464b0f0ecb482ca52075a3158f6a1#diff-dac09655ff6a54658c320a28a6ea297c
and InitListExpr::isTransparent in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/122f88d481971b68d05ba12395c3b73ab4b31ab3#diff-dac09655ff6a54658c320a28a6ea297c

al3xtjames marked an inline comment as done.

Added null check for getInit(0)
