https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3417 reports that EDK2's (indirect) problems with compiling under gcc11 are "fixed at 42af706dfba72bf2639ae2101caca10d89701b24" and the status has been set to RESOLVED FIXED. Note: EDK2's original problems being rejected for invalid C code were from an upstream code base and what vintages of that a code base were being used by EDK2. Still, it left EDK2 broken on compilers with with correct(ed) VLA checking until EDK2 pulled in a corrected vintage of the brotli code. (I've not looked at what else might have gotten involved over the 9 months after the initial bugzilla.tianocore.org report, so I may be oversimplifying the history.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
