Bug ID: 105588 Summary: _Alignof (C) and alignof (C++) on dereference of `double *` disagree on 32-bit x86 Product: gcc Version: 13.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: hstong at ca dot ibm.com Target Milestone: --- Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu _Alignof(expression) on a dereference of a pointer to double of unknown value should produce the ABI-required alignment and not the preferred alignment. The equivalent C++ program behaves as expected. Online compiler link: https://godbolt.org/z/Tb93a6fcT ### SOURCE (<stdin>): void f(double *pd) { extern char x[_Alignof(double)]; char (*y)[_Alignof(*pd)] = &x; } ### COMPILER INVOCATION COMMAND: gcc -m32 -fsyntax-only -xc - ### ACTUAL OUTPUT: <stdin>: In function 'f': <stdin>:3:30: warning: initialization of 'char (*)[8]' from incompatible pointer type 'char (*)[4]' [-Wincompatible-pointer-types] ### EXPECTED OUTPUT: (No "incompatible pointer types" warning) ### COMPILER VERSION INFO (`gcc -v`): Using built-in specs.
