           Summary: nonnull attribute generates a warning for transparent
                    unions
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend
        AssignedTo: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: tim.nieradzik at gmx.de
                CC: llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu


typedef struct {
    char *str;
} Class;

typedef union {
    Class *object;
} Instance __attribute__((transparent_union));

__attribute__((nonnull(1))) void Class_init(Instance this, char *str) {
    this.object->str = str;
}

int main(void) {
    Class obj;
    Class_init(0, "Hello World");
}

Clang reports: "nonnull attribute only applies to pointer arguments". However,
as transparent unions are guaranteed to contain only pointers, using nonnull is
safe.
