--- Begin Message ---Package: gnat Version: 4.9 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, As said in the bug title gnat fail to reconize some compile time known size type as it in some circumstances. Please see below a minimal test case striped down form a real case : procedure Foo is type Unbiased_T is range 0 .. 4 with Size => 3; pragma Warnings (Off, "size clause forces biased representation for ""Biased_T"""); type Biased_T is range 1 .. 4 with Size => 2; pragma Warnings (On, "size clause forces biased representation for ""Biased_T"""); type Biased_Or_Unbiased_T (Biased : Boolean) is record case Biased is when True => Biased_Value : Biased_T; when False => Unbiased_Value : Unbiased_T; end case; end record with Unchecked_Union, Convention => Ada, Size => 3; for Biased_Or_Unbiased_T use record Biased_Value at 0 range 1 .. 2; Unbiased_Value at 0 range 0 .. 2; end record; type Hardware_Register_T (Value_1_Is_Biased : Boolean; Value_2_Is_Biased : Boolean) is record Value_1 : Biased_Or_Unbiased_T (Value_2_Is_Biased); Value_2 : Biased_Or_Unbiased_T (Value_2_Is_Biased); end record with Size => 8, Volatile; for Hardware_Register_T use record Value_1 at 0 range 0 .. 2; Value_2 at 0 range 3 .. 5; Value_1_Is_Biased at 0 range 6 .. 6; Value_2_Is_Biased at 0 range 7 .. 7; end record; begin null; end Foo; When invoking gnatmake as this : gnatmake foo.adb I get this output : gcc-4.9 -c foo.adb foo.adb:38:11: size clause not allowed for variable length type foo.adb:42:28: component clause not allowed for variable length component foo.adb:43:28: component clause not allowed for variable length component gnatmake: "foo.adb" compilation error But none of the types here are variable length. By some little investigation I have found that all of the 3 reported errors cames from the same place in the compiler code. The function Size_Known_At_Compile_Time return False and should return True in the file freeze.adb at line 2832 and line 5228. I expected at least any type with a static unrejected size attribute or clause to be considered having a Size_Known_At_Compile_Time. The function Size_Known_At_Compile_Time itself defined in einfo.adb line 2892 just return a flag which seem to only be manipulated by the procedure Set_Size_Known_At_Compile_Time also define in einfo.adb at line 5655. I suspect a call to the procedure Set_Size_Known_At_Compile_Time should be added somwhere in freese.adb when there is a size clause or attribute for a type but there I am at my limit in my understanding of the compiler code. I suspect this bug to be present in all architecture and I can at least confirme it on gnat-4.9 for x86 and powerpc, gnat-4.6 on x86 and avr-ada gnat-4.7. In the hope this bug report will help.
