--- Comment #4 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Complete testcase:

#include <stdlib.h>

struct S1 {
  unsigned int x;
  float        y;
  struct S1   *z;
};


struct S1 *f1(void) {
  struct S1 *p = malloc(sizeof(p));  // diagnostic required
  return p;
}


It would probably make sense to not only warn for malloc, but also for other
functions with __attribute__((malloc)) and __attribute__((alloc_size(n))) where
n!=sizeof(*p). That would also help for xmalloc and similar wrappers in gcc and
glibc.
