Based on top of Masahiro's recent patch: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CAK7LNARHoTnZ3gAvHgnYB4n-wYuboxC10A6zURh1ODGhxWd2yA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] gcc-plugins: Rebuild plugins in external module directory When building external kernel modules, the build system doesn't require the GCC version to match the version used to build the original kernel. In fact, most distros release the compiler and the kernel in separate packages, with separate release cadences. So it's not uncommon for mismatches to occur. But with GCC plugins enabled, that's no longer allowed: cc1: error: incompatible gcc/plugin versions cc1: error: failed to initialize plugin ./scripts/gcc-plugins/structleak_plugin.so That error comes from the plugin's call to plugin_default_version_check(), which strictly enforces the GCC version. The strict check makes sense, because there's nothing to prevent the GCC plugin ABI from changing, and it often does. Since plugins are tightly tied to the compiler version, just rebuild them locally in the external module directory, and then use the local version in the external module build.
