As part of my current project, I am trying to compile some proprietary device drivers on Redhat8 using the vendor supplied Makefile, which invokes gcc. Here is the complete output of the gcc -v command:
bash-4.4$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/8/lto-wrapper
OFFLOAD_TARGET_NAMES=nvptx-none
OFFLOAD_TARGET_DEFAULT=1
Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
Configured with: ../configure --enable-bootstrap --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,lto --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --enable-multilib --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-linker-build-id --with-gcc-major-version-only --with-linker-hash-style=gnu --enable-plugin --enable-initfini-array --with-isl --disable-libmpx --enable-offload-targets=nvptx-none --without-cuda-driver --enable-gnu-indirect-function --enable-cet --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=x86-64 --build=x86_64-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 8.3.1 20191121 (Red Hat 8.3.1-5) (GCC)
The drivers that I am trying to compile had been originally written for Redhat6, and the compilation results in a bunch of errors in system header files such as <linux/printk.h>, <linux/kernel.h> et al.
I do not wish to flood this post with specific errors, but rather what I am trying to figure out is why is it that I am seeing the errors in the kernel header files when the code is compiled on Redhat8 with the version of gcc that is included in the distribution.
I am of the view that the root cause of the errors is a possible mismatch between the compiler version and the kernel source code.
Any thoughts would be highly appreciated.
TIA

Well then nobody can give you a good answer, just guesses based on your
incomplete description of the problem. Showing one or two examples of the
errors would make it possible for people to give good answers.

That seems unlikely. I would guess that the reason is a mismatch between
the driver code you are compiling and the new kernel headers.

Thanks Jonathan.
I have pasted below a sample of the nature of errors we are seeing during compilation; I have removed segments which are proprietary and replaced with PROPRIETARY:

Well then nobody can give you a good answer, just guesses based on your incomplete description of the problem. Showing one or two examples of the errors would make it possible for people to give good answers.
but rather what I am trying to figure out is why is it that I am seeing the errors in the kernel header files when the code is compiled on Redhat8 with the version of gcc that is included in the distribution.
I am of the view that the root cause of the errors is a possible mismatch between the compiler version and the kernel source code.
That seems unlikely. I would guess that the reason is a mismatch between the driver code you are compiling and the new kernel headers.

I suggested that it would be helpful to show "one or two examples of
the errors", not hundreds and hundreds of the same error, again and
again.

This suggests that your proprietary headers are defining a macro
called "__print" which interferes with the use of that name in the
kernel headers.

This suggests that something has done #undef __noreturn, or you have
edited the file <linux/compiler_attributes.h> (or maybe put another
file with the same name in the include path, and so the correct one is
not being found).

Similarly here, for __must_check.
I think this is a problem in your proprietary driver headers, not a
problem with GCC.
