Combined Call 2026-02-25

Agenda

• Design docs and/or RFCs

  • [RFC] Proposed wording for a description of Flang for the LLVM home page
    • This came out of a suggestion on the last call.
    • The initial wording has been tweaked some, now it is last call for comments and tweaks before Tarun submits the wording.
  • [RFC] Runtime for Parameterized Derived Types with LEN type parameters
    • Related PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/181008
    • The PR received feedback, some open questions remain and the authors are working through them
    • Dan Bonachea: What does this imply for multi-image?
  • [Flang][Affine] Linearized array access in -promote-to-affine causes false dependence and blocks loop tiling
    • Several paths forward have been suggested, please comment on the post to help guide this new contributor
  • Make hlfir.forall can contain PureOp
    • Related PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/180556
  • [RFC] Adding conditional expressions in Flang (F2023)
    • PR should be up for review shortly
  • [RFC] Warning suppression policy
    • Related PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/174918
    • Regarding a false positive from gcc and how to address an issue related to zero initialization and possible undefined behavior
    • Proposed change of disabling warnings for faulty gcc versions globally, this could reduce the maintenance burden
  • Cross-compilation of real(kind=16)
    • Related PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/182230
    • Reviewers needed
  • Changes to builtin modules
    • Waiting on more details from reviewer
  • `-ffp-contract=fast` Violates the Fortran Standard
    • Peter Klausler has “requested a formal interpretation to clarify the extent to which the long-standing guarantee of ‘the integrity of parentheses’ applies to a parenthesized real intrinsic multiplication in ISO Fortran.” Awaiting response.
    • The document in question is https://j3-fortran.org/doc/year/26/26-115r2.txt
      • Someone needs to champion the paper on the floor of the committee to force a discussion
      • Would be best if someone from the US or another convenient time zone could take this on. NVIDIA’s Mark LeAir? Ted Johnson as alternate.

• PRs of Note
