--- Comment #5 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Tamar Christina <tnfch...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:200c9e865f49255ea32d4891b746d394d156a16f commit r11-5078-g200c9e865f49255ea32d4891b746d394d156a16f Author: Tamar Christina <tamar.christ...@arm.com> Date: Tue Nov 17 10:14:53 2020 +0000 MingW: Don't add suffix for nul device This patch fixes an issue where on systems that are HAVE_TARGET_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX the driver calls convert_filename in order to add the suffix to the filename. However while it excludes `-` it doesn't exclude the null device. This patches changes the check to exclude anything that is not a file by calling not_actual_file_p instead. This also fixes a bug in not_actual_file_p which was accidentally testing a the global variable output_file instead of the supplied argument. This hasn't been an issue so far because because not_actual_file_p was only used on output_file till now. This fixes the adding of an extension to the nul device which is against the recommendations on msdn[0] and makes it harder for the next tool in line to detect it. Bootstrapped Regtested on x86_64-w64-mingw32 and no issues. Did do a bootstrap on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu but no regtest as it's not a HAVE_TARGET_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX system.
