[PATCH] rust: Kbuild: Skip -fmin-function-alignment in bindgen flags

From: Zehui Xu
Date: Tue Jul 30 2024 - 18:21:28 EST


GCC recently added the -fmin-function-alignment option, which will appear in GCC 14. However, this flag can cause issues when passed to the Rust Makefile and affect the bindgen process. Bindgen relies on libclang to parse C code, and currently does not support the -fmin-function-alignment flag, leading to compilation failures when GCC 14 is used.

This patch addresses the issue by adding -fmin-function-alignment to the bindgen_skip_c_flags in rust/Makefile, ensuring it is skipped during the bindgen process. This prevents the flag from causing compilation issues and maintains compatibility with the upcoming GCC 14.

This is my first patch to the kernel, if there are any issues or improvements needed, please let me know. ;)
