[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] mk: Rework gcc version detection to permit versions newer than 4.x

[David Marchand]

Hello Panu,

Looks like there is an issue with gcc 4.7 on my debian.

$ make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc && make -j8
../mk/toolchain/gcc/rte.toolchain-compat.mk:46: You are using GCC < 4.x.
This is neither supported, nor tested.
../mk/toolchain/gcc/rte.toolchain-compat.mk:46: You are using GCC < 4.x.
This is neither supported, nor tested.

$ gcc -dumpversion
4.7

$ gcc -v
