[PATCH v4 5/7] selftests/x86: avoid -no-pie warnings from clang during compilation

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

 



When building with clang, via:

    make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...clang warns that -no-pie is "unused during compilation".

This occurs because clang only wants to see -no-pie during linking.
Here, we don't have a separate linking stage, so a compiler warning is
unavoidable without (wastefully) restructuring the Makefile.

Avoid the warning by simply disabling that warning, for clang builds.
