This patch lets const __flashx *x = NULL;
compile to x = 0x000000 instead of the previous x = 0x800000. Apart from that, -Waddr-space-convert warns no more for such code, which removes some itches when using a null pointer. Dito for __flash. Applied as obvious. Johann -- AVR: target/121277 - Don't load 0x800000 with const __flashx *x = NULL. Converting from generic AS to __flashx used the same rule like for __memx, which tags RAM (generic AS) locations by setting bit 23. The justification was that generic isn't a subset of __flashx, though that lead to surprises with code like const __flashx *x = NULL. The natural thing to do is to just load 0x000000 in that case, so that the null pointer works in __flashx as expected. Apart from that, converting NULL to __flashx (or __flash) no more raises a -Waddr-space-convert diagnostic. gcc/ PR target/121277 * config/avr/avr.cc (avr_addr_space_convert): When converting from generic AS to __flashx, don't set bit 23. (avr_convert_to_type): Don't -Waddr-space-convert when NULL is converted to __flashx or to __flash.
