Hi Eugeniy, A couple of minor notes below. > -----Original Message----- > From: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Thursday, June 4, 2020 8:39 PM > To: linux-snps-arc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>; Eugeniy Paltsev > <paltsev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] ARC: allow to override default mcpu compiler flag > > Kernel builds set their own default -mcpu for a given ISA build. We used to use a default "-mcpu" per ARC ISA version (one for ARCompact and one for ARCv2). > But that gets in the way of "custom" -mcpu flags from propagating > into kernel build.
