Bug ID: 97986 Summary: ICE in force_constant_size when applying va_arg to VLA type Product: gcc Version: 11.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: pascal_cuoq at hotmail dot com Target Milestone: --- This bug seems most similar to (but still different from) https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59711 (in which a comment says that it appears to have been fixed in GCC 6). In GCC 10.2 and some earlier versions, compiling the following program (Compiler Explorer link: https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/11ob5j ): #include <stdarg.h> int sum(int n, ...) { va_list ap; va_start(ap, n); int *input = va_arg(ap, int[n]); int rc = 0; for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) rc += input[i]; return rc; } Produces the following error message: In file included from <source>:1: <source>: In function 'sum': <source>:7:29: internal compiler error: in force_constant_size, at gimplify.c:733 7 | int *input = va_arg(ap, int[n]); | ^~~ Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate.
