The following code throws a warning which I do not understand.

Purpose is to save and restore SREG, which is a special function
register (SFR) defined by its hardware address as:

#define SREG (*(volatile uint8_t*) (0x3F + __AVR_SFR_OFFSET__))

which is the common C idiom to define such an SFR. The C code is:

<code>
typedef __UINT8_TYPE__ uint8_t;

#define SREG (*(volatile uint8_t*) (0x3F + __AVR_SFR_OFFSET__))

static __inline__ uint8_t __iCliRetVal (void)
{
      __asm__ __volatile__ ("cli" ::: "memory");
      return 1;
}

static __inline__ void __iRestore (const uint8_t *__s)
{
      SREG = *__s;
      __asm__ volatile ("" ::: "memory");
}

void foo (void)
{

     for (uint8_t sreg_save __attribute__((__cleanup__(__iRestore))) = SREG,
              __ToDo = __iCliRetVal();
           __ToDo ;
           __ToDo = 0 )
     {
         __asm ("nop");
     }
}
</code>

The documentation of attribute cleanup says that the function provided
to cleanup (__iRestore) must take a pointer type that is compatible with
the attributed variable, which is the case.  The warning is:

   avr-gcc-13 -c foo-i.c -mmcu=atmega8 -Os -Wall -save-temps -dumpbase ""
foo-i.c: In function 'foo':
foo-i.c:20:71: warning: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds of
'volatile uint8_t[0]' {aka 'volatile unsigned char[]'} [-Warray-bounds]
     20 |    for (uint8_t sreg_save
__attribute__((__cleanup__(__iRestore))) = SREG,
        |
       ~^~~~
In function '__iRestore',
      inlined from 'foo' at foo-i.c:20:17:

     13 |     SREG = *__s;
        |     ~~~~~~~~~~~~                         ^

To me this looks like a GCC problem, and older versions of the compiler
don't complain.  Or is there actually an issue with that code? Purpose
of the code is to save / restore SREG around a block of code, "nop" in
the example.

The warning complains about the places that are using SREG, so it that
macro definition wrong?

Either you need to use --param=min-pagesize=0 as an option or you need
to modify the avr backend to set that by default.

Thanks,

Ok, thanks. I filed it as PR107842.
