Hello! We've been having lots of reports of users trying to compile gem5 with a new GCC and something breaking due to more strict checks, usually implicit fallthroughs.
Could we add a build with the latest GCC to help with this on the pre submit automatic testing? This raises two questions: 1) Does Kokoro have GCC 9? 8? Could we install them if not? 2) Would it be feasible to run it for all ISAs we currently run for, resource-wise? Otherwise, how to select which ISAs to run for? Ideally we should have a script that determines which ISA was touched by a patch, and runs tests accordingly. In any case, running on any ISA would already be a great benefit to take care of the ISA agnostic code. _______________________________________________ gem5-dev mailing list [email protected] http://m5sim.org/mailman/listinfo/gem5-dev
