Package: gcc Version: 4:7.2.0-1d1 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
When a function pointer is restrict-qualified, GCC gives an error message. However, when thishappens in a parameter list, gcc incorrectly reports the error at the first restrict-qualified parameter, even if the problem is at a different restrict-qaulified parameter. I tried with both gcc 7.2.0 and gcc 8.0.0 from Debian. Code to reproduce: struct cvu_huffman_state { unsigned char (*input)(void); }; void cvu_init_huffman(struct cvu_huffman_state *restrict state, unsigned char(*restrict input)(void)) { state->input = input; } The error message "error: invalid use of ‘restrict’" will report the error at the first parameter, even though the problem is at the second parameter.
