Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] Request for clarification related to gcc 8

Hi,
Can I get clarification/context on these two bug stories that have been recently created? StarlingX does not use gcc 8 currently.  What is the activity that is triggering this work?  Which sub-team is looking at this?

I wouldn't really consider these bugs as there was no requirement previously to support this compiler.

If this is part of a new initiative, then we should have a [Feature] story that tracks this initiative with tasks for the different work items required to make the various Starlingx components compliant.

[Bug] GCC 8 complains of invalid reference null check on fm_common

https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2003498
[Bug] fm-common cannot be built with GCC 8 due to string bound checks

Thanks,
Ghada
