While the C99, C11 and later standards introduce many other features, most of these are already available in gnu89 as GNU extensions as well. An earlier attempt to do this when gcc-5 started defaulting to -std=gnu11 failed because at the time that caused warnings about designated initializers with older compilers. Now that gcc-5.1 is the minimum compiler version used for building kernels, that is no longer a concern. Similarly, the behavior of 'inline' functions changes between gnu89 and gnu11, but this was taken care of by defining 'inline' to include __attribute__((gnu_inline)) in order to allow building with clang a while ago. One minor issue that remains is an added gcc warning for shifts of negative integers when building with -Werror, which happens with the 'make W=1' option, as well as for three drivers in the kernel that always enable -Werror, but it was only observed with the i915 driver so far. To be on the safe side, add -Wno-shift-negative-value to any -Wextra in a Makefile. Nathan Chancellor reported an additional -Wdeclaration-after-statement warning that appears in a system header on arm, this still needs a workaround. The differences between gnu99, gnu11, gnu1x and gnu17 are fairly minimal and mainly impact warnings at the -Wpedantic level that the kernel never enables. Between these, gnu11 is the newest version that is supported by all supported compiler versions, though it is only the default on gcc-5, while all other supported versions of gcc or clang default to gnu1x/gnu17.
