--- Comment #8 from GCC Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The releases/gcc-16 branch has been updated by Harald Anlauf <[email protected]>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:3968d5fb552fbd2e0687a20e8221e4e08d49da04 commit r16-9034-g3968d5fb552fbd2e0687a20e8221e4e08d49da04 Author: Harald Anlauf <[email protected]> Date: Thu May 28 22:49:26 2026 +0200 Fortran: checking of passed character length [PR125393] Commit r16-3462 enhanced checking of character length passed to a character dummy. However, when the actual argument was an array element, its storage size was estimated from all elements up to the end of the array. This could give a bogus warning when the dummy argument was of a scalar character type. Fix check for this case to actually compare the character lengths of actual and dummy. PR fortran/125393 gcc/fortran/ChangeLog: * interface.cc (get_expr_storage_size): Additionally return character length. (gfc_compare_actual_formal): When the formal is a scalar character variable, use character lengths, not array storage size for check. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gfortran.dg/argument_checking_28.f90: New test. (cherry picked from commit 47bb24546297ef6812d69bc800ec005fc7e567e9)
