GCC 15 Compiler Branched Ahead Of GCC 15.1 Stable Release


The GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) code was branched today to the releases/gcc-15 branch and GCC 16.0.0 is now the version on the main development branch.

GCC 15 release manager Richard Biener of SUSE announced today that GCC 15 is branched with now hitting zero P1 regressions of the highest priority. GCC 15 delivers on some nice usability enhancements, many Rust language improvements, moves its default C language version to C23, introduces new AMD Zen target optimizations, adds Intel Diamond Rapids targeting, adds Fujitsu Monaka CPU target support, Intel AVX10.2 support, more Intel APX enablement, retires Xeon Phi support, and many other changes from hardware support to language features. For those using the newly-released Fedora 42, it's already the first major Linux distribution using the near-final GCC 15 compiler already by default.
