VTune Amplifier 2017 with GCC6

[eyal_N_]

Hi All,

I'm trying to compile VTune Amplifier 2017 update 4 kernel driver with GCC6.3

Compilation fails on 

include/linux/compiler-gcc.h:106:30: fatal error: linux/compiler-gcc6.h: No such file or directory
#include gcc_header(__GNUC__)
                              ^

When searching VTune gcc headers I see it contains headers up to version 5

./include/linux/compiler-gcc.h
./include/linux/compiler-gcc3.h
./include/linux/compiler-gcc5.h
./include/linux/compiler-gcc4.h

Is anyone familiar with it?

Thanks

The question seems too ambiguous to answer.  Generally speaking, there needn't be a problem using VTune with a newer gcc than those with which it was tested.  Surely, the next major release of VTune must have been tested with more recent gcc releases.  If you can't explain your problem here, you could submit a problem report using your support account or by the amplxe-feedback create-bug-report  route.
