This can obviously not change anything for other ABIs, so it doesn't
need testing anywhere else.  Good :-)

The new function parameter should be described in the function comment.

Please add a comment here, saying what it is for?  I'd do it inside the
braces.

So it is important that this function only ever sets *zero_width_bf_seen
to 1, never resets it; please document that with it as well?

Just "GCC 12" please.  You might want to indicate that older compilers
did the wrong thing here.  And maybe say this is only for ELFv2 somehow?
In some way that doesn't make it more confusing than not saying it :-)

Okay for trunk with such comment updates.  Thanks!

So, from what you wrote, :0 in the ppc* psABIs the intent is that :0 is not

In that case I don't really understand the above (the continue in
particular).  Because the continue means it is ignored for C++ and not
ignored for C, so basically you return to the 4.5-11 ABI incompatibility
between C and C++.
C++ :0 will have DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD set, C :0 will not...

To be more precise, I'd expect what most targets want to do for the
actual ABI decisions not to use DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD at all.
I.e. do:
   if (TREE_CODE (field) != FIELD_DECL)
 continue;
   if (DECL_BIT_FIELD (field) && integer_zerop (DECL_SIZE (field)))
 {
   // :0
   // in some psABIs, ignore it, i.e. continue;
   // in others psABIs, take them into account, i.e. do nothing.
 }
and use DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD only for the -Wpsabi purposes.

The only exception would be for targets that decide to keep GCC 4.5-11
compatibility with the C incompatible with C++.


I think you're misunderstanding what I'm trying to do with this patch.  
I am not changing the code generation at all (your patch did that).  All 
I'm doing is detecting when the old code generation and new code 
generation will differ, and emitting a diagnostic in that case.


The way I do that is to allow rs6000_aggregate_candidate to *think* that 
something is a homogeneous aggregate even when zero-width bitfields are 
present (hence the continue), but record the fact that we saw one.  This 
gives the same answer as we gave before your patch.  Then, in 
rs6000_discover_homogeneous_aggregate, once we think we have a 
homogeneous aggregate, we check whether we actually had a zero-width 
bitfield present.  If so, then we diagnose the change in code generation 
and return false, indicating that we didn't actually find a homogeneous 
aggregate.  Other than the diagnostic, this matches the behavior after 
your patch.


I've verified that we didn't change code generation for C code with 
zero-width bitfields as a result of either your patch or mine. Before 
and after, a C struct containing a zero-width bitfield causes us to 
avoid generating code for a homogeneous aggregate, just as we do for C++ 
after your patch.


I hope this helps clear things up, and I apologize for not giving a 
better description of my intent.


Thanks!
Bill

To be more precise, I'd expect what most targets want to do for the
actual ABI decisions not to use DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD at all.
I.e. do:
  if (TREE_CODE (field) != FIELD_DECL)

{
  // :0
  // in some psABIs, ignore it, i.e. continue;
  // in others psABIs, take them into account, i.e. do nothing.
}
and use DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD only for the -Wpsabi purposes.

The only exception would be for targets that decide to keep GCC 4.5-11

It is actually more complex.
Both C and C++ FEs thought they were removing zero bit fields, but
neither did that, then the non-working code from C FE has been removed,
and finally in 4.5 the C++ FE has been "fixed" to remove zero bit fields
"correctly".  And 12 is going to remove the removal, but marks FIELD_DECLs
that were in 4.5-11 removed and now aren't for -Wpsabi purposes.
So, for most backends, C and C++ was ABI compatible in presence of :0
initially, then for several got incompatible in 4.5 and now is time to
decide for each backend what to do according to their psABI, if :0 should be
ignored or not during the function arg/return value passing decisions.

Hi!

Previously zero-width bit fields were removed from structs, so that otherwise
homogeneous aggregates were treated as such and passed in FPRs and VSRs.
This was incorrect behavior per the ELFv2 ABI.  Now that these fields are no
longer being removed, we generate the correct parameter passing code.  Alert
the unwary user in the rare cases where this behavior changes.

As noted in the PR, once the GCC 12 Changes page has text describing this issue,
we can update the diagnostic message to reference that URL.  I'll handle that
in a follow-up patch.

Bootstrapped and tested on powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu with no regressions.
Is this okay for trunk?

No, the change happened recently on trunk.

Noting that the definition comes from tree.h and is 
#define SET_DECL_FIELD_CXX_ZERO_WIDTH_BIT_FIELD(NODE, VAL) \
  do {  \
gcc_checking_assert (DECL_BIT_FIELD (NODE));\
FIELD_DECL_CHECK (NODE)->decl_common.decl_flag_0 = (VAL);   \
  } while (0)

ok.

(ok).
