Bug ID: 85444
Summary: asm specifier on typedef silently ignored
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: whh8b at virginia dot edu
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 43970

Patch to add warning for ignored asm specifiers.
In a declaration like
typedef struct {} x asm ("X");
the asm label is properly ignored but the user is not alerted to this.
I am attaching a patch that will add a warning at -Wpedantic to alert the user
in a case such as this.
This is the first time that I am submitting a patch to GCC and I am really
nervous about making sure that I followed the proper protocol. I am sure that
there are plenty of things that I am missing but I look forward to cleaning it
up and learning the process.
Thanks for your patience!
