As a result, mame-0.182 no longer builds: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/koschei/package/mame?collection=f26 The errors seem to be of the following type: Quote: g++ -MMD -MP -MP -DPTR64=1 -DNDEBUG -DCRLF=2 -DLSB_FIRST -DXMD_H -DFLAC__NO_DLL -DNATIVE_DRC=drcbe_x64 -DLUA_COMPAT_ALL -DLUA_COMPAT_5_1 -DLUA_COMPAT_5_2 -I../../../../../src/osd -I../../../../../src/emu -I../../../../../src/devices -I../../../../../src/lib/netlist -I../../../../../src/mame -I../../../../../src/lib -I../../../../../src/lib/util -I../../../../../3rdparty -I../../../../generated/emu -I../../../../generated/emu/layout -I../../../../../scripts -I../../../../../3rdparty/asio/include -m64 -pipe -Wno-deprecated-declarations -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -O2 -g1 -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -grecord-gcc-switches -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1 -m64 -mtune=generic -Wno-unknown-pragmas -Wall -Wcast-align -Wundef -Wformat-security -Wwrite-strings -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-conversion -Wno-unused-result -Wno-array-bounds -m64 -x c++ -std=c++14 -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsuggest-override -flifetime-dse=1 -include ../../../../linux_gcc/obj/x64/Release/emu.h -o "../../../../linux_gcc/obj/x64/Release/src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.o" -c "../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp" ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp: In constructor 'bus::sunkbd::hle_type4_device::hle_type4_device(const machine_config&, const char, device_t, uint32_t)': ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:1140:12: error: 'bus::sunkbd::hle_device_base::hle_device_base(const machine_config&, device_type, const char, const char, device_t, uint32_t, const char, const char)' is protected within this context __FILE__) ^ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:752:1: note: declared protected here hle_device_base::hle_device_base( ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp: In constructor 'bus::sunkbd::hle_type5_device::hle_type5_device(const machine_config&, const char, device_t, uint32_t)': ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:1179:12: error: 'bus::sunkbd::hle_device_base::hle_device_base(const machine_config&, device_type, const char, const char, device_t, uint32_t, const char, const char)' is protected within this context __FILE__) ^ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:752:1: note: declared protected here hle_device_base::hle_device_base( ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp: In constructor 'bus::sunkbd::hle_type5_gb_device::hle_type5_gb_device(const machine_config&, const char, device_t, uint32_t)': ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:1218:12: error: 'bus::sunkbd::hle_device_base::hle_device_base(const machine_config&, device_type, const char, const char, device_t, uint32_t, const char, const char)' is protected within this context __FILE__) ^ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:752:1: note: declared protected here hle_device_base::hle_device_base( ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp: In constructor 'bus::sunkbd::hle_type5_se_device::hle_type5_se_device(const machine_config&, const char, device_t, uint32_t)': ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:1257:12: error: 'bus::sunkbd::hle_device_base::hle_device_base(const machine_config&, device_type, const char, const char, device_t, uint32_t, const char, const char)' is protected within this context __FILE__) ^ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:752:1: note: declared protected here hle_device_base::hle_device_base( ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp: In constructor 'bus::sunkbd::hle_type5_jp_device::hle_type5_jp_device(const machine_config&, const char, device_t, uint32_t)': ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:1296:12: error: 'bus::sunkbd::hle_device_base::hle_device_base(const machine_config&, device_type, const char, const char, device_t, uint32_t, const char, const char)' is protected within this context __FILE__) ^ ../../../../../src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.cpp:752:1: note: declared protected here hle_device_base::hle_device_base( ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[2]: ** [optional.make:13532: ../../../../linux_gcc/obj/x64/Release/src/devices/bus/sunkbd/hlekbd.o] Error 1

That's the whole point of protected constructors. It appears that GCC in no longer correctly dealing with constructor promotion.

I checked https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html and found the following: Quote: The default semantics of inherited constructors has changed in all modes, following P0136. Essentially, overload resolution happens as if calling the inherited constructor directly, and the compiler fills in construction of the other bases and members as needed. Most uses should not need any changes. The old behavior can be restored with -fno-new-inheriting-ctors, or -fabi-version less than 11. Could this be related?

The protection levels are fine, look at the inheritance: hle_device_base has a protected constructor - this is accessible by all directly derived classes, that's the point of protected members hle_type4_device_base derives from hle_device_base inherits the constructor with a using statement in its protected section, making it accessible to derived classes hle_type4_device_base has no data members without default constructors to prevent the inherited constructor from being used (it has no data members at all) The concrete Type 4/5 device classes derive from hle_type4_device_base and call its inherited constructor from their public constructors Initialisation of bases/members is in class scope, so protected members of bases are accessible It's a compiler bug, take it up with the GCC people.

It radically changes the performance characteristics of std::string, and we don't want to have to support this configuration. Also, please raise a bug with GCC and/or with Fedora. It would be good to actually have this fixed in the compiler.
