            Bug ID: 108650
           Summary: Error: IMPORT statement only permitted in an INTERFACE
                    body | but it should be allowed in any contained
                    routine to control scope
           Product: gcc
           Version: 11.3.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: fortran
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

Created attachment 54398
  --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=54398&action=edit
Source code, bash file to compile, and error message

import should be allowed within contained subroutines to 
control access to global variables from parent routine.

From:
http://armnlib.uqam.ca/PDF/The_New_Features_of_Fortran_2018.pdf 
   The import statement can be used in a contained subprogram or 
   block construct to control host association.

It does not look like import is on the F2018 standard website:
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Fortran2018Status

but it should work within contained routines:
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentation/fortran-compiler-oneapi-dev-guide-and-reference/top/language-reference/a-to-z-reference/h-to-i/import.html

I tested this code with with 11.3.0 and 12.1.0 
I attached the following source code:

--------------------------------------------
module test
    implicit none
    !
    save
    integer:: a = 0
    integer:: b = 0
    integer:: c = 0
    !
    contains
    !
    subroutine sub1(x)
      import:: a                 ! raises error that import only allowed in
interface
      real, intent(inout):: x
      a = a + 1
      x = x + 1.0
    end subroutine
    !
    subroutine sub2(x)
      real, intent(inout):: x
      x = x + 1.0
      !
      contains
      !
      function positive(x) result(ans)
        import, none             ! raises error that import only allowed in
interface
        real, intent(in):: x
        logical:: ans
        ans = x>=0.0
      end function
    end subroutine
end module

program MAIN
  use test
  implicit none
  real:: var
  var = 1.0
  call sub1(var)
  call sub2(var)
  ! 
end program
