            Bug ID: 96529
           Summary: GCC applies C language linkage to instantiations from
                    abbreviated function templates
           Product: gcc
           Version: 11.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: hstong at ca dot ibm.com
  Target Milestone: ---

GCC appears to be treating the instantiated specialization of the abbreviated
function template `g` as if it is a function named `g` whose name has C
language linkage.

[dcl.link] does not appear to apply language linkage to the names of
specializations of function templates.

Note: Nor does [dcl.link] apply language linkage to the names of templates (as
opposed to the type that a specialization of the template would have).

### SOURCE (<stdin>):
extern "C" {
  void g(auto) {}
  void g(void) { g(42); }
}


### COMPILER INVOCATION:
g++ -std=c++20 -Wall -Wextra -pedantic-errors -xc++ - -c -o /dev/null


### ACTUAL OUTPUT:
/tmp/cc2TjgyX.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc2TjgyX.s:25: Error: symbol `g' is already defined
/tmp/cc2TjgyX.s: Error: .size expression for g does not evaluate to a constant


### EXPECTED OUTPUT:
(clean compile)


### COMPILER VERSION INFO (g++ -v):
