--- Comment #35 from Mikael Morin <mikael at gcc dot gnu.org> --- A little status update. I have pushed the latest patch attached to this PR a little further, but not far enough to reduce the number of testsuite regressions to 0. I plan to submit it for gcc-13, but it won’t make it for gcc-12. (In reply to Richard Biener from comment #33) > With > a single dimension there's not much value in using ARRAY_REF over > pointer arithmetic and dereference. I have tried to fix this PR using pointer arithmetic too. But there are so many places in the frontend where we expect to have an array type when dereferencing a descriptor pointer, that it’s not as simple as it seems and I finally convinced myself that the patch attached to this PR was the best way to go. For gcc-12, is there a way to add a middle-end workaround using annotations on descriptor types (a lang flag or something) ?
