Description :

Code that uses real constants larger than the size of a double cause a failure to prove, even with true assertions. When WP tries to create the proof for files containing those constants, the kernel crashes with the message of Invalid_argument("Unrecognized constant "inf"") in the middle of generating the files to send to the prover.

Additional Information :

This was tested in the public Aluminum version, on both a Linux and Cygwin build.

Steps To Reproduce :

== File bug.c (attached):

int main() { //@ assert 1.0 < 0x1.0p2047; }

== Run command:

frama-c bug.c -wp -wp-print

== Output:

[kernel] Parsing FRAMAC_SHARE/libc/__fc_builtin_for_normalization.i (no preprocessing) [kernel] Parsing bug.c (with preprocessing) [wp] warning: Missing RTE guards [wp] 1 goal scheduled [wp] [Alt-Ergo] Goal typed_main_assert : Failed Invalid_argument("Unrecognized constant "inf"") [wp] Proved goals: 0 / 1 Alt-Ergo: 0 (failed: 1)

     Unexpected error (Invalid_argument("Unrecognized constant \"inf\"")).
     Please report as 'crash' at http://bts.frama-c.com/.
     Your Frama-C version is Aluminium-20160501.
     Note that a version and a backtrace alone often do not contain enough
     information to understand the bug. Guidelines for reporting bugs are at:

== Note that the constant "0x1.0p2047" can be replaced with any value greater than or equal to 0x2.0p1023; even other forms of real constant other than hexadecimal.
