Hi Jason,
Thanks. Attached is v3 with the requested changes: the commit message is
wrapped at 76 columns, the test is renamed, and the type check now uses
INDIRECT_TYPE_P with the additional parentheses.
I kept the type guard because this adjustment is specifically for
covariant
pointer or reference returns. I also rebased onto current master.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu with no unexpected constexpr or consteval
test failures.
Pushed, thanks!
Thanks,
Odysseas

Hi Jason,
Thanks for catching the non-zero-offset case.
In v2, the result-thunk path now preserves null pointers,
evaluates the call only once, and adjusts the result to
the thunk’s static return type.
The test covers both zero- and non-zero-offset bases.
Looks good, just a few tweaks.

Let's add "constexpr-virtual" to the filename, i.e.
constexpr-virtual-pr126324.C
+ && scalarish_type_p (TREE_TYPE (t))
Let's use INDIRECT_TYPE_P since a covariant return type will be pointer
or reference. Or drop this line entirely; is it needed?
+ && !same_type_ignoring_top_level_qualifiers_p
+ (TREE_TYPE (result), TREE_TYPE (t)))
This needs another set of parens starting either before or after the !
to prevent emacs from moving the args to line up with the &&.
