	cfi_desc_to_gfc_desc and gfc_desc_to_cfi_desc.
	* trans-expr.c (gfc_conv_gfc_desc_to_cfi_desc): New function.
	(gfc_conv_procedure_call): Call it for scalar and array actual
	arguments, when the formal arguments are bind_c with assumed
	shape or assumed rank.
	* trans.h : External declarations for gfor_fndecl_cfi_to_gfc
	and gfor_fndecl_gfc_to_cfi.

2019-01-12  Paul Thomas  <pault@gcc.gnu.org>

	* gfortran.dg/ISO_Fortran_binding_1.f90 : New test.

	* gfortran.dg/ISO_Fortran_binding_2.f90 : New test.
	* gfortran.dg/ISO_Fortran_binding_2.c : Auxilliary file for test.
	* gfortran.dg/bind_c_array_params_2.f90 : Change search string
	for dump tree scan.

2019-01-12  Paul Thomas  <pault@gcc.gnu.org>

	* ISO_Fortran_binding.h : New file.
	* Makefile.am : Include ISO_Fortran_binding.c in the list of
	files to compile.
	* Makefile.in : Regenerated.
	* gfortran.map : Add _gfortran_cfi_desc_to_gfc_desc,
	_gfortran_gfc_desc_to_cfi_desc and the CFI API functions.
	* runtime/ISO_Fortran_binding.c : New file containing the new
	functions added to the map.
