I assume that this is because gcc15 use -std=c23 as default, and I use command "make -n -j$(nproc) KCONFIG_CONFIG=Microsoft/config-wsl | sed 's/;/\n/g' | grep gcc |grep -v "std" | less" to find the compile command use default std, and its output is below

@yihaodong1 why are you trying to build the Linux kernel using C23 standard? While there is work in progress, the Linux kernel is not C23 compatible yet. Add a build flag, i.e. -std=gnu17 if using gcc15 ...or port the Linux kernel code to C23!

I am using Arch ditro, and its gcc is gcc15 now. And I want to add the build flag, but did not find the suitable place😂
