Description Richard Henderson 2022-04-01 19:56:26 UTC
For a testcase such as

enum E { l = -1, z = 0, g = 1 };
int foo(void);
enum E foo(void) { return z; }

If the implementation type of 'enum E' is not 'int',
we will correctly emit an error (e.g. -fshort-enums).

It would be desirable to emit a warning in this case,
because it is probably a mistake and definitely a
portability error.
Comment 1 Marek Polacek 2022-04-01 20:17:26 UTC
Confirmed.
Comment 2 Marek Polacek 2022-04-01 20:59:07 UTC
Maybe something like the attached patch would work (but needs a new option, maybe -Wenum-int-mismatch, possibly enabled by -Wall?).  With it, the following test

enum E { l = -1, z = 0, g = 1 };
int foo(void);
enum E foo(void) { return z; }

void bar(int);
void bar(enum E);

extern enum E arr[10];
extern int arr[10];

is diagnosed like this:

105131.c:3:8: warning: conflicting types for ‘foo’ due to enum/integer mismatch; have ‘enum E(void)’
    3 | enum E foo(void) { return z; }

    c: Implement new -Wenum-int-mismatch warning [PR105131]
    
    In C, an enumerated type is compatible with char, a signed integer type,
    or an unsigned integer type (6.7.2.2/5).  Therefore this code compiles:
    
      enum E { l = -1, z = 0, g = 1 };
      int foo(void);
      enum E foo(void) { return z; }
    
    if the underlying type of 'enum E' is 'int' (if not, we emit an error).
    This is different for typedefs, where C11 permits typedefs to be
    redeclared to the same type, but not to compatible types.  In C++, the
    code above is invalid.
    
    It seems desirable to emit a warning in the C case, because it is
    probably a mistake and definitely a portability error, given that the
    choice of the underlying type is implementation-defined.
    
    To that end, this patch implements a new -Wenum-int-mismatch warning.
    Conveniently, we already have comptypes_check_enum_int to detect such
    mismatches.  This warning is enabled by either -Wall or -Wc++-compat.
