[PATCH] kbuild: rebuild GCC plugins when the compiler is upgraded

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Linus reported a build error due to the GCC plugin incompatibility
when the compiler is upgraded. [1]

  cc1: error: incompatible gcc/plugin versions
  cc1: error: failed to initialize plugin ./scripts/gcc-plugins/stackleak_plugin.so

GCC plugins are tied to a particular GCC version. So, they must be
rebuilt when the compiler is upgraded.

This seems to be a long-standing flaw since the initial support of
GCC plugins.

Extend commit 8b59cd81dc5e ("kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the
compiler is updated"), so that GCC plugins are covered by the
compiler upgrade detection.
