Hi!
P1272R4 has added to the std::byteswap new stuff to me quite unrelated
clarification for std::bit_cast.
std::bit_cast is already in C++20 though and std::byteswap is a new
C++23 feature, it is unclear to me if that bit_cast addition in there
is really meant for C++23 and later only (e.g. related to only
C++23 actually allowing non-literal vars and thus other spots where
indeterminate values can appear during constant evaluation), or if
it was meant as a DR and should apply to C++20 too.
The following so far only lightly tested patch (dg.exp=bit-cast*.C
testing) implements it as applying to C++23 only.
Also, it is unclear to me how bitfields should behave, whether having
indeterminate bits in
struct S { unsigned char a : 8, b : 5, c : 3, d, e; unsigned int f : 8, g : 24;
};
struct T1 { unsigned char a : 1, : 7, b : 5, c : 3, d, e; unsigned int f : 8, g
: 24; };
struct T2 { unsigned char a : 8, b : 1, : 4, c : 3, d, e; unsigned int f : 8, g
: 24; };
struct T3 { unsigned char a : 8, b : 5, c : 1, : 2, d, e; unsigned int f : 8, g
: 24; };
struct T4 { unsigned char a : 8, b : 5, c : 3, d, e; unsigned int f : 1, : 7, g
: 24; };
constexpr bool f1 () { T1 t = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; S s = __builtin_bit_cast
(S, t); return true; }
constexpr bool f2 () { T2 t = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; S s = __builtin_bit_cast
(S, t); return true; }
constexpr bool f3 () { T3 t = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; S s = __builtin_bit_cast
(S, t); return true; }
constexpr bool f4 () { T4 t = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; S s = __builtin_bit_cast
(S, t); return true; }
constexpr bool a = f1 ();
constexpr bool b = f2 ();
constexpr bool c = f3 ();
constexpr bool d = f4 ();
The patch currently uses TREE_TYPE and doesn't check DECL_BIT_FIELD,
so it accepts f1 and f4 cases where the TREE_TYPE is unsigned char
and doesn't accept f2 and f3 where the type is some 5 or 3 bit precision
unsigned type. But possibly either it should look at the declared
type of the bitfield and don't allow f4 and allow f1-f3, or don't allow
any of the f1-f4 cases.

* constexpr.c (clear_uchar_or_std_byte_in_mask): New function.
(cxx_eval_bit_cast): Don't error about padding bits if target
type is unsigned char or std::byte, instead return no clearing
ctor. Use clear_uchar_or_std_byte_in_mask.
* g++.dg/cpp2a/bit-cast11.C: New test.
* g++.dg/cpp2a/bit-cast12.C: New test.
* g++.dg/cpp2a/bit-cast13.C: New test.
