Looking back at the HEAD from a few commits ago, it's obvious that using the LDFLAGS variable for linking the guest_init binary was rather pointless, as it was zeroed in the beginning and then never set. As guest_init is a rather special binary that does not cope well with arbitrary linker flags, let's reinstantiate the previous state by removing the LDFLAGS variable from those linking steps. This allows LDFLAGS to be used for linking the actual kvmtool binary only and helps to re-merge commit d0e2772b93a ("Makefile: allow overriding CFLAGS on the command line"). Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@xxxxxxx> --- Hi, Riku: can you confirm that this patch together with the one that was reverted (d0e2772b93a) still works in your environment? Will, if that works for Riku and you acknowledge this patch, can you also re-merge the reverted patch mentioned above? Turns out that the revert also made my other patch useless ;-) Cheers, Andre.
