From: Nick Desaulniers ndesaulniers@google.com Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2019 15:15:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/purgatory: Use CFLAGS_REMOVE rather than reset KBUILD_CFLAGS
KBUILD_CFLAGS is very carefully built up in the top level Makefile, particularly when cross compiling or using different build tools. Resetting KBUILD_CFLAGS via := assignment is an antipattern.
The comment above the reset mentions that -pg is problematic. Other Makefiles use `CFLAGS_REMOVE_file.o = $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)` when CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is set. Prefer that pattern to wiping out all of the important KBUILD_CFLAGS then manually having to re-add them. Seems also that __stack_chk_fail references are generated when using CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR or CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG.

Hi Vaibhav, What LTS kernel are you basing your distro off of? IIRC, 4.19, or was it further back?
