Bug ID: 119528
Summary: __attribute__((deprecated(text)) triggers with
__attribute__((malloc(deallocator, index)))
Product: gcc
Version: 14.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: akallabeth+gnu at posteo dot net
Target Milestone: ---
Got the following (deprecated) pair of allocator/deallocators declared in a
header:
__attribute__((deprecated("deprecated")) void free_foo(FOO* var);
__attribute__((deprecated("deprecated")) __attribute__((malloc(free_foo, 1)))
FOO* create_foo(void);
now this alone is enough to trigger deprecation warnings during a compile every
time the header is included.
looks like `GCC` considers the __attribute__((malloc(free_foo, 1))) as usage of
free_foo
for comparison, tried to compile the same with clang (19.7.1) and there there
are no warnings emitted.
