[PATCH] tools build: Use -Xpreprocessor instead of -Wp and leave pathnames intact
From: Will Deacon
Date: Fri Apr 13 2018 - 09:53:03 EST
Build.include invokes the pre-processor via GCC in order to generate a
dependency list for the input file. Since these options are passed using
'-Wp,-M...,$(depfile)' it is important that $(depfile) does not contain
any commas, so these are substituted with underscores. This substitution
will break the build if the directory name of the output directory happens
to include a comma, e.g. when using "aiaiai" for bisection testing:
| cc1: fatal error: x86/tools/objtool/fixdep.o: No such file or directory
| compilation terminated.
| cat: /tmp/aiaiai-test-patchset.qroS/before/obj.defconfig_x86/tools/objtool/.fixdep.o.d: No such file or directory
| make[5]: *** [tools/objtool/fixdep.o] Error 1
We can address this by using -Xpreprocessor instead of -Wp, which allows
us to pass down an unmodified pathname.

As an aside, the way we currently pass the depfile to -MD appears to be
in direct contradiction with the preprocessor documentation, although it
does work with the cc1 implementation.
