Hi,
this is a very straightforward fix for an undefined behavior in fortran/decl.c:
In the man page of sprintf, it's clearly state:
===
NOTES
Some programs imprudently rely on code such as the following
sprintf(buf, "%s some further text", buf);
to append text to buf. However, the standards explicitly note that the results
are undefined if source and destination buffers overlap when calling sprintf(),
snprintf(), vsprintf(), and vsnprintf(). Depending on the version of gcc(1)
used, and the compiler options employed, calls such as the above will not pro‐
duce the expected results.
===
in gcc/fortran/decl.c, there is exactly such case as following:
3361 sprintf (name, "%s_%d", name, kind_value);
fixed it in this patch.
bootstraped and tested on both X86 and Aarch64. no regression.
Okay for trunk?
thanks.
Qing

* fortran/decl.c (gfc_get_pdt_instance): Adjust the call to
sprintf to avoid the same buffer being both source and
destination.
