From: Eric Botcazou <ebotca...@adacore.com> The problem is that Apply_Discriminant_Check introduces an unnecessary temporary for an assignment where both sides have the same constrained subtype but the left-hand side is an aliased component.
This comes from an approximation in the implementation introduced long time ago to deal with aliased unconstrained objects in Ada 95, more specifically to still generate a check when both sides have the same unconstrained subtype in this case; it is replaced by an explicit test that the common subtype is constrained. gcc/ada/ChangeLog: * checks.adb (Apply_Discriminant_Check): Remove undocumented test on Is_Aliased_View applied to the left-hand side to skip the check in the case where the subtypes are the same, and replace it with a test that the subtypes are constrained. Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on master. --- gcc/ada/checks.adb | 15 ++++++--------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/gcc/ada/checks.adb b/gcc/ada/checks.adb index a9bebee3e139..c30e5f1bf199 100644 --- a/gcc/ada/checks.adb +++ b/gcc/ada/checks.adb @@ -1585,21 +1585,18 @@ package body Checks is return; end if; - -- Suppress checks if the subtypes are the same.
