Add
-Wno-implicit-int -Wno-implicit-function-declaration
to the benchmarks directory'sMakefile
in order to suppress these warnings which are triggered by the Dhrystone source code and which are treated as non-fatal warnings in GCC 13 and earlier but as fatal errors in GCC 14.Only Dhrystone triggers these warnings but the flags are global to all benchmarks. I'm assuming that this is OK and that refactoring of the benchmarks
Makefile
to make these apply only to Dhrystone is not necessary?Another PR (#585) was proposed (see below) but that takes the approach of "fixing" the Dhrystone code and, as @aswaterman pointed out here, the Dhrystone benchmark source code is not supposed to be modified but, rather, to be used as-is.

After this change compilation of Dhrystone using GCC 14 succeeds.
