Sorry for the rogue Ctrl-Enter folks: I'll forgo the citation on the PCI stuff but std::map only got the emplace() method in g++ 4.8, and we rely on it.
We might as well make it official that we require gcc 4.8.

Hi all, I would also suggest that we bump the minimum gcc version to 4.8. In December, we had two changes that require 4.8+, namely the change mentioned below [1] (additional gcc reference [2]), and the new PCI support [1] http://repo.gem5.org/gem5/rev/d9a0136ab8cc [2] https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56285 [3] -----Original Message----- From: gem5-dev [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Reinhardt Sent: Saturday, January 23, 2016 5:13 AM To: gem5 Developer List Subject: Re: [gem5-dev] gem5 not building with gcc-4.7 -- bump required gcc version? Hi Lena, You are right about inheriting constructors not being available until 4.8: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.7/cxx0x_status.html https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.8/cxx0x_status.html I'd say the key question is whether there are people out there who would have difficulty moving to 4.8 as the minimum rev. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS has been out for almost two years and the default version on that platform is 4.8. Are there other platforms in common use that don't easily support 4.8?
