What is causing this build failure with STM32CubeIDE on Linux with FW_L4 V1.17.0?

My build fails with the error shown below. I get this with the default toolchain and with GCC 10.2.

I am using STM32CubeIDE 1.6.1 downloaded today, installed via RPM on Fedora 33, with L4 V1.17.0 firmware.

Any sort of fix or work-around would be helpful.

In case it matters, I am targeting an STM32L4P5RE. I am porting code that builds using L4_V1.13.0 for STM32L433CC. I have not updated the firmware libraries is a couple years. I needed to upgrade in order to target the newer chip.

I created a brand new project targeting the STM32CubeIDE. I am getting this error from code that is using the ARM DSP library, using arm_math.h, which ends up pulling in this file. I have verified that the arm_math.h header is the one from the V1.17.0 firmware release.

Same problem here. Not sure how to properly solve it.

Take a look at this: https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5/issues/617

(FYI: I'm on Windows10)

This looks like new, pure C startup recommended in recent CMSIS.

But Cube generates assembly (.s) startup files, and they are provided with STM32 Cube libraries.

Maybe just use this way if the new CMSIS stuff makes problems.
