Hi! The pr120057-1.c testcase is incorrectly rejected since r15-4377 (and for a while it also ICEd after the error), i.e. the optimization of large C initializers using RAW_DATA_CST. Similarly, the embed-18.c testcase is incorrectly rejected since the embed support has been introduced and RAW_DATA_CST used for that.
The callers of check_constexpr_init (store_init_value and output_init_element) compute int_const_expr as int_const_expr = (TREE_CODE (init) == INTEGER_CST && !TREE_OVERFLOW (init) && INTEGRAL_TYPE_P (TREE_TYPE (init))); but that is only passed through down to check_constexpr_init. I think tweaking those 2 callers to also allow RAW_DATA_CST for int_const_expr when check_constexpr_init needs top special case it no matter what would be larger, so the patch just changes check_constexpr_init to deal with RAW_DATA_CST in the initializers. For TYPE_UNSIGNED char precision integral types RAW_DATA_CST is always valid, for !TYPE_UNSIGNED we need to check for 128-255 values being turned into negative ones.
