IR generation was not handling the special two-operand flavor of the `?:` operator that GCC supports as an extension. The extractor doesn't quite give us enough information to do this correctly (see github/codeql-c-extractor-team#67), but we can get pretty close. About half of the code could be shared between the two-operand and three-operand flavors. The main differences for the two-operand flavor are: 1. The "then" operand isn't a child of the `ConditionalExpr`. Instead, we just reuse the original value of the "condition" operand, skipping any implicit cast to `bool` (see comment for rationale). 2. For the three-operand flavor, we generate the condition as control flow rather than the computation of a `bool` value, to avoid creating unnecessarily complicated branching. For the two-operand version, we just compute the value, since we have to reuse that value in the "then" branch anyway. I've added IR tests for these new cases. I've also updated the expectations for `SignAnalysis.ql` based on the fix. @rdmarsh2, can you please double-check that these diffs look correct? I believe they do, but you're the range/sign analysis expert.
CodeQL
This open source repository contains the standard CodeQL libraries and queries that power LGTM and the other CodeQL products that GitHub makes available to its customers worldwide.
How do I learn CodeQL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation on getting started with writing CodeQL. You can use the interactive query console on LGTM.com or the CodeQL for Visual Studio Code extension to try out your queries on any open source project that's currently being analyzed.
Contributing
We welcome contributions to our standard library and standard checks. Do you have an idea for a new check, or how to improve an existing query? Then please go ahead and open a pull request! Before you do, though, please take the time to read our contributing guidelines. You can also consult our style guides to learn how to format your code for consistency and clarity, how to write query metadata, and how to write query help documentation for your query.
