VLAs are no longer in the standard since C11.

Yes they are still there are optional, which basically means that other than clang and gcc, no other C compiler is going to bother supporting them anyway.

Google has sponsored a 2 year effort to remove all VLAs from Linux kernel, that is how much love they get from the security industry.
