Bug ID: 113892 Summary: Missing temporary in assignment for array-valued function referencing host-associated array Product: gcc Version: 14.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: fortran Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: anlauf at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 57402 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=57402&action=edit Testcase The attached testcase is a slightly rewritten version of the discussion at: https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/creating-temporary-array-when-declared-in-a-module/7379 All gfortran versions print: 11 21 31 12 22 32 13 23 33 11 12 13 T F F 12 22 23 T T F 13 23 33 T T T Expected: 11 21 31 12 22 32 13 23 33 11 21 31 T T T 12 22 32 T T T 13 23 33 T T T What happens? Function create_matrix takes the host-associated array "am" and returns the TRANSPOSE(am). When assigning the result directly to "am" we get a wrong result because no temporary is created. Maybe the dependency analysis of assignments needs to take care of the possibility that a non-elemental function might access a host-associated (or USE-associated or COMMON) variable appearing on the lhs.
