x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those. Ubuntu Pro 18.04 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 both use gcc-7 as the system compiler but additionally include toolchains that remain supported. With the new minimum toolchain versions, a number of workarounds for older versions can be dropped, in particular on x86_64 and arm64. Importantly, the updated compiler version allows removing two of the five remaining gcc plugins, as support for sancov and structeak features is already included in modern compiler versions. I tried collecting the known changes that are possible based on the new toolchain version, but expect that more cleanups will be possible. Since this touches multiple architectures, I merged the patches through the asm-generic tree. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEo6/YBQwIrVS28WGKmmx57+YAGNkFAmg6vNMACgkQmmx57+YA GNkOmg/+LtR9B2P27GPBeG8HnLTZ8hKELiyYeSk6ZFgQv5hevE37HV35Yru7e7gu wcF6CgYr8ff4CVcHM7y0790oGew1thkqq5CklFIH0EwCDJx/mWfZR1SS2jfZIEWM HSDOlQQd1S8oWia14tSnQos3nW3CB9/ABVTHH+Wvl3xn48WMRvgK2LJgGLuxJrt8 5DD9auHiLjchWB5tB4DU98IgWWgFUGMTsI6IayZ4dkF4CdWqd89h0Y3pjJYeBgHS mPxzR2q8WjEmG9hp7QuZQgn/pAYleJAwHvvkoLrkQ2ieqx3FjWiwFbQp4CG1Sc8L eBR1lnkqS2z/e7xJLfe86fOoKWWu4I0tZKhRan/0+UOGm5nXrGpqSxKS8ZDsRuAp 3fvyhIp1cYSa7Xkok8BFhLEFR0tguXJXnXBc3tWE5VXIfFNd0Ohh1GUYhXDAqWKh i0jN9dSNhokM3AqBi6qZl5kmBnRA3UsIaOg3QRrqN8IlBPp+u7i5xsrJIUWvD95o TO06admmLcCJT8n6ZfNVfRjBgzu8+t54UVaDx9YYwxoNGOSFwqOb8CSPTWPxLmDr RKDUOvO8DBlP7uFz9neP+LxluA3DjurRZvb0z0AmCZ8/RXEmTMCyfP5a6esxquXt 0Bqo6hM9q+TeXTHNS1CNvqLSWWikw+AzS/ZPPvriYFn5lxtbq6c= =pdDC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'gcc-minimum-version-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic Pull compiler version requirement update from Arnd Bergmann: "Require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30 x86 already uses gcc-8 as the minimum version, this changes all other architectures to the same version. gcc-8 is used is Debian 10 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, both of which are still supported, and binutils 2.30 is the oldest corresponding version on those.
