Re: [Bug c++/39813] [feature request] __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ addition
Something is strange ... messages sent to bugs from which gcc-bugs was removed do in fact still go to gcc-bugs anyway. So maybe there is no real problem with messages not going to gcc-bugs - but an apparent removal of gcc-bugs should not appear in messages reporting a change that presumably didn't intend to remove gcc-bugs, that's noise. -- Joseph S.

Re: [Bug middle-end/50199] [4.7 Regression] wrong code with -flto -fno-merge-constants

Hmmm. Partitioning unshares string constants and I suppose ipa-cp propagates
one of it to the callee.
Not sure if this is a well-defined testcase though. If it is we'd probably
need to add CONST_DECLs for address-taken constants and register them with
the varpool (and disallow ... in gimple).
It should be possible to make a non-LTO testcase that fails similarly
by instructing the assembler/linker not to merge strings.
Joseph, does C require that a string literal ... has a single underlying
object or would the testcase be undefined?
It's completely clear that once a pointer to a string literal has been
assigned to a variable, that variable has a well-defined value pointing to
that particular copy of the string literal, and so compares equal to
itself. So the testcase ought to pass.
I believe each instance of a string literal in the source code after
preprocessing corresponds to just one object of static storage duration
(so the values from different calls to the same function containing a
string literal must also compare equal, for example) though the objects
from separate string literals in the source code may or may not overlap or
coincide. (There is no requirement for, or restriction against,
unification between copies of the same inline function included in
different translation units.) So the value of foo == foo is
unspecified, but given
const char *return_foo (void) { return foo; }
the value of return_foo () == return_foo () must be 1.

If you use -std=c99 -pedantic-errors you get an error, as expected.
You're compiling in gnu89 mode.
If you use -std=c99 without -pedantic-errors you get a duplicate warning:
t.c:1: warning: inline function 'foo' declared but never defined

Re: Priorites for PR 35435 and PR 35441
On Fri, 28 Mar 2008, Volker Reichelt wrote: Hi Joseph, on March 15 you changed to priority of PR 35435 and PR 35441 to P4. IMHO this is not in line with our current policy: * PR 35435 is not an error-recovery bug (i.e. we don't issue a valid error message before the ICE). So this should rather be P2, I think. * PR 35441 is a diagnostic bug, in which completely garbled diagnostics are emitted. This is a user-visible regression. Richard Guenther changed the related bugs PR 35442 and 35443 to P2, which I think is the right setting. Would you mind changing the priorities? Or explain why P4 is the correct setting after all? I made a judgement of how significant I felt the bugs were (which includes questions of how likely they are to affect users). If you think continued presence of these bugs in Stage 3 should delay moving to regression-only mode for 4.4 (which is what the choice of P2 or P4 is about), feel free to set them back to P3 for another RM to look at them. -- Joseph S.

Re: GCC rejects valid code?

While looking at the rules governing struct/union declarations in C, I

upon this example:

}
This is accepted by both Comeau and the Intel C compiler, but is rejected
by GCC 4.1.2 and 4.3.0 on the grounds that
bug.c:7: error: ‘A’ defined as wrong kind of tag
My interpretation is that line 7 does not define `union A' with the
wrong kind of tag; it declares a (totally unrelated) `struct A'.
However, I am not sure. Should I file a bug report for this?
Tags have a single namespace, not three namespaces. Because a declaration
of the tag A is visible when struct A is used, and struct A** p does
not define the contents of the type and is not just struct A;, it refers
to the previous type of that tag (6.7.2.3#9, paragraph numbering from
N1256). Referring to a union type with struct in turn violates
paragraph 2 (added in C99 TC3 following DR#251).

To get 3 2 1, the initial 3 requires func(3) to be evaluated between the evaluation of func(1) and its dereference, so func(3) is evaluated after func(1); but likewise the final 1 requires func(1) to be evaluated after func(3). -- Joseph S.

The patch to define HAVE_LANGINFO_CODESET went in, so now UTF-8 LC_CTYPE gets proper quotes in English messages. If the testsuite doesn't run with LC_ALL=C, something must be broken - I'd just presumed that any testsuite harness testing diagnostics would have set LC_ALL=C for years to avoid failing when translations are used. But absent that, LC_ALL=C should be set for make check. The easiest place to set LC_ALL for running the testsuite is probably in gcc/Makefile.in where other environment variables are set for the testsuite, though there may be a right place in the dejagnu files somewhere. -- Joseph S.
