From: Nathan Chancellor nathan@kernel.org Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2021 12:26:22 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: VDSO: Use CLANG_FLAGS instead of filtering out '--target='
Commit ee67855ecd9d ("MIPS: vdso: Allow clang's --target flag in VDSO cflags") allowed the '--target=' flag from the main Makefile to filter through to the vDSO. However, it did not bring any of the other clang specific flags for controlling the integrated assembler and the GNU tools locations (--prefix=, --gcc-toolchain=, and -no-integrated-as). Without these, we will get a warning (visible with tinyconfig):
arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:14:1: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per compilation unit .pushsection .note.Linux, "a",@note ; .balign 4 ; .long 2f - 1f ; .long 4484f - 3f ; .long 0 ; 1:.asciz "Linux" ; 2:.balign 4 ; 3: ^ arch/mips/vdso/elf.S:34:2: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per compilation unit .section .mips_abiflags, "a" ^
All of these flags are bundled up under CLANG_FLAGS in the main Makefile and exported so that they can be added to Makefiles that set their own CFLAGS. Use this value instead of filtering out '--target=' so there is no warning and all of the tools are properly used.
