DeadCode
: Eliminate out-of-scope results, handle templates and multiple compilation
#717
Merged

This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

Eliminate false positives where a line of code is used in some copies (instances) but not others.
Add a utility library for determing whether a condition holds for all copies of a statement in a program.
The modifications to the query to handle multiple copies of a statement across different targets also support reporting of issues across multiple template instantiations. This commit adds additional tests to demonstrate that this works effectively.
Ensure that macro expansions and multiple instances of code work together.
The rule description for this rule in fact talks about dead operations, not dead statements. Therefore: - Unshare the rule from MISRA C++ 2008 - Implement dead operation, as per the rule
Use the HoldsForAllInstances module to eliminate cases where a line of code is compiled into multiple targets with different dead code behaviour.

Looks good to me! Basically just added some thoughts around language, almost entirely just comments.

Description
Fixes #716, #715 and #604:
RULE-2-2
is modified to match the rule text, now only reporting "operations" not statements.M0-1-9
andRULE-2-2
now handle cases where a line of code is compiled multiple times (e.g. templates, different targets), and has differing dead code states in each. We now only report a line of code as dead if it is dead in all instances.RULE-2-2
provides a better alert message.Change request type

Release change checklist
A change note (development_handbook.md#change-notes) is required for any pull request which modifies:
If you are only adding new rule queries, a change note is not required.
Author: Is a change note required?
🚨🚨🚨
Reviewer: Confirm that format of shared queries (not the .qll file, the
.ql file that imports it) is valid by running them within VS Code.
Reviewer: Confirm that either a change note is not required or the change note is required and has been added.
Query development review checklist
For PRs that add new queries or modify existing queries, the following checklist should be completed by both the author and reviewer:
Author
As a rule of thumb, predicates specific to the query should take no more than 1 minute, and for simple queries be under 10 seconds. If this is not the case, this should be highlighted and agreed in the code review process.
Reviewer
As a rule of thumb, predicates specific to the query should take no more than 1 minute, and for simple queries be under 10 seconds. If this is not the case, this should be highlighted and agreed in the code review process.
