Kbuild works in objtree, not in srctree. So, __FILE__ is prefixed with $(srctree)/ for out-of-tree build. For example, WARN_ON() will look as follows if you built your kernel out of source tree: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at /path/to/build/directory/arch/arm64/kernel/foo.c:... With this series, it will always look like follows regardless of O= option. WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at arch/arm64/kernel/foo.c:... If GCC does not support -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined (i.e. gcc version < 4.4), the output is prefixed with absolute path.
