Hi,
this ICE on invalid code isn't a regression, thus a patch probably
doesn't qualify for Stage 4, but IMHO I made good progress on it and I'm
sending what I have now anyway... The ICE happens during error recovery
after a sensible diagnostic for the first declaration in:
auto* foo() { return 0; }
auto* foo();
After the error, finish_function does:
apply_deduced_return_type (fndecl, void_type_node);
fntype = TREE_TYPE (fndecl);
which then is inconsistent with the auto* return type of the second
declaration and leads to an ICE in merge_types (which duplicate_decls
thought was safe to call because types_match is true (evidently:
decls_match uses fndecl_declared_return_type)). Thus, in terms of error
recovery, I think that in cases like the one at issue it makes sense not
to replace auto* after the error and leave the return type untouched:
certainly the below passes testing and avoids ICEing on the testcase at
issue and a variant of it.
Thanks,
Paolo.
