[Xen-devel] Unable to build with gcc 6 because of etherboot

["Daniel E. Shub" <daniel.e.shub@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is a follow on to a message I sent to xen-users:
https://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-08/msg01924.html

I am trying to compile Xen 4.7.0 with gcc 6.1.1, but I get an error
related to etherboot. It was suggested to update the etherboot
Makefile to the head of the etherboot repository. Another possibility
would be to just pull in the gcc 6 patches from upstream (e.g.,
https://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git?a=search&h=refs%2Fheads%2Fmaster&st=commit&s=gcc+6).

For 4.6.0 and gcc 5 the recommendation was to just pull in the patches
(cf. https://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-08/msg01924.html)
but to update the etherboot version at some point. Is the recommended
course still to just patch as needed or has there been work to update
the etherboot version?
