Your query is wrong. The proper query is:
$ find . -type f -name Makefile -exec grep -rH 'EXTRA_CFLAGS.*\-DDEBUG$' {} \;
./arch/x86/pci/Makefile:EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DDEBUG
./drivers/pps/generators/Makefile:EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DDEBUG
./drivers/media/video/omap3isp/Makefile:EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DDEBUG
There's nothing wrong with a debug Kconfig option
for omap3. What's wrong is:
1) It is badly implemented: it is just enabling -DDEBUG for the entire
subsystem, as the test is wrong;
2) Even if you fix, you'll be enabling debug to the entire subsystem, if you
keep adding things to EXTRA_CFLAGS.
It should be noticed that several places use a different syntax for enabling
per-driver/per-subsystem -D flag:
find . -type f -name Makefile -exec grep -rH '\-DDEBUG$' {} \;
...
./drivers/mmc/Makefile:subdir-ccflags-$(CONFIG_MMC_DEBUG) := -DDEBUG
...
./drivers/infiniband/hw/cxgb3/Makefile:ccflags-$(CONFIG_INFINIBAND_CXGB3_DEBUG) += -DDEBUG
I _suspect_ that using ccflags-$(foo_DEBUG) may work.
Thanks,
Mauro
