[PATCH 5.10 074/299] x86/boot: Add $(CLANG_FLAGS) to compressed KBUILD_CFLAGS

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-05-10 10:56:39
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit d5cbd80e302dfea59726c44c56ab7957f822409f ]

When cross compiling x86 on an ARM machine with clang, there are several
errors along the lines of:

  arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h:27:10: error: invalid output constraint '=&c' in asm

This happens because the compressed boot Makefile reassigns KBUILD_CFLAGS
and drops the clang flags that set the target architecture ('--target=')
and the path to the GNU cross tools ('--prefix='), meaning that the host
architecture is targeted.

These flags are available as $(CLANG_FLAGS) from the main Makefile so
add them to the compressed boot folder's KBUILD_CFLAGS so that cross
compiling works as expected.
