[PATCH 4.19 43/74] kbuild: initialize CLANG_FLAGS correctly in the top Makefile

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 05 2019 - 09:12:24 EST


From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5241ab4cf42d3a93b933b55d3d53f43049081fa1 upstream.

CLANG_FLAGS is initialized by the following line:

CLANG_FLAGS := --target=$(notdir $(CROSS_COMPILE:%-=%))

..., which is run only when CROSS_COMPILE is set.

Some build targets (bindeb-pkg etc.) recurse to the top Makefile.

When you build the kernel with Clang but without CROSS_COMPILE,
the same compiler flags such as -no-integrated-as are accumulated
into CLANG_FLAGS.

If you run 'make CC=clang' and then 'make CC=clang bindeb-pkg',
Kbuild will recompile everything needlessly due to the build command
change.

Fix this by correctly initializing CLANG_FLAGS.
