            Bug ID: 114928
           Summary: #pragma packed(push,1) should give the same warning as
                    __attribute__((packed))
           Product: gcc
           Version: 13.2.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

File that compiles with no warnings

I'm using the ARM Toolchain
arm-gnu-toolchain-13.2.Rel1-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-none-linux-gnu-g++

running on Ubuntu 20.04

If I delcare my structure using:

struct Foo {
    char y;
    int x;
} __attribute__((packed));

then the compiler correctly gives me a warning about taking the address of a
packed member:

warning: taking address of packed member of ‘Foo’ may result in an unaligned
pointer value [-Waddress-of-packed-member]

However, if I change the structure to use #pragma pack(push, 1) 

#pragma pack(push, 1)
struct Foo {
    char y;
    int x;
};
#pragma pack(pop)

then I don't get the warning (and my bug is that it should give the same
warning).

In either case the member offsets and structure size are the same.
