N1 Neoverse : GCC 6.4 Linaro cross compiler can be used for compiling linux kernel?

We have platform based on N1 NeoVerse CPU, I see in Buildrood there is a dependency on GCC-9 and Higher compiler version. We are using ARM Linaro toolchain GCC Version 6.4.1 for compiling linux kernel. Is there a hard limitation or requirement that only GCC-9 and higher has to be used for compiling code to run on N1 Neoverse ?

Buildroot no longer supports gcc6. It would be prudent to migrate your existing build to gcc9 (or later): https://github.com/buildroot/buildroot/commit/983361abef2782cf03029c01bae7f47f050ca3b1
