Hello,

This is a simple patch that fixes PR 4755. Currently the ALLOCATE 
statement will free and re-allocate an already allocated scalar. The 
Fortran standard says that this is an error. The attached patch fixes 
the problem.

I am also attaching two tree dumps of the same program, compiled before 
and after the application of this patch. The test program is this:

program test
     integer, allocatable :: A(:), B[:]
     integer :: stat
     character(len=33) :: str
     allocate(A(1), B[*], stat=stat)
end program


If you compare the "before" and "after" files you'll see that with this 
patch GCC no longer tries to free and reallocate A(1). You will also 
notice that the block for B[*] didn't change. The block for B[*] is 
already correct in trunk and doesn't need changing.

Here is my ChangeLog:


2011-07-22  Daniel Carrera  <dcarrera@gmail.com>

	* trans.c (gfc__allocate_allocatable): [PR 4755] Do not fix
	and the reallocate a variable that is already allocated.

Hi Daniel,

It's PR 49755 - the 9 is missing in the number ...

Instead of "[PR 4755]" use: <tab>PR <component>/<number>. Namely:

Please also include the test case from the PR in the patch - with added 
"! { dg-do run }" and also containing "! PR fortran/49755".

However, the bug is not fully fixed. If you try the testcase in the 
bugreport, you will see that it still fails - the stat= is correctly 
set, but the array shape is wrong.

The problem is that the "a.dim" setting should be done after allocation 
in the inner loop - also the a.offset is misplaced. If possible, one 
should also move the "D.1585" into the inner "else" block, which would 
save one from using the following code in case the memory is already 
allocated:

                   D.1585 = a.data;
                   ...
               a.data = D.1585;

The promised dump, cf. testcase in the PR.

         a.dim[0].lbound = 1;
         a.dim[0].ubound = 5;
         a.dim[0].stride = 1;
         a.dim[1].lbound = 1;
         a.dim[1].ubound = 5;
         a.dim[1].stride = 5;
         overflow.4 = 0;
         if ((logical(kind=4)) __builtin_expect ((integer(kind=8)) 
(overflow.4 != 0), 0))
             stat.3 = 5014;
         else
           {
               void * restrict D.1585;

               if ((logical(kind=4)) __builtin_expect ((integer(kind=8)) 
(a.data != 0B), 0))
                 {
                   D.1585 = a.data;
                   stat.3 = 5014;
                 }
              else
                ....
               a.data = D.1585;
             }
           }
         a.offset = -6;
         if (stat.3 != 0) goto L.3;
         L.3:

Hi Tobias,

Just a quick update so you know what I'm doing.

Working on it...

I'm working on this right now. I see a few instances of code like this 
in the output tree. I think there is an opportunity to make the output 
tree much cleaner and maybe also make the GCC internals cleaner.

I hope to have something to show you soon-ish.

Daniel.
