Bug ID: 99049 Summary: _Alignof ignores requested alignment of bit-field types in ms_struct struct Product: gcc Version: 10.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: ju.orth at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Consider typedef int Int __attribute__((aligned(128))); struct __attribute__((ms_struct)) X { Int i:1; }; struct Y { char c; struct X x; }; int f(void) { return _Alignof(struct X); } int g(void) { return __builtin_offsetof(struct Y, x); } When compiling this on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, f returns 16 but g returns 128. I believe that _Alignof and __builtin_offsetof as above should always return the same value.
