When building on aarch64: $ make -sj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 LLVM=1 defconfig $ grep STACKPROTECTOR .config When building on x86_64: $ make -sj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 LLVM=1 defconfig $ grep STACKPROTECTOR .config CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y When clang is invoked without a '--target' flag, code is generated for the default target, which is usually the host (it is configurable via cmake). As a result, the has-stack-protector scripts will generate code for the default target but check for x86 specific segment registers, which cannot succeed if the default target is not x86. $(CLANG_FLAGS) contains an explicit '--target' flag so pass that variable along to the has-stack-protector scripts so that the stack protector can be enabled when cross compiling with clang. The 32-bit stack protector cannot currently be enabled with clang, as it does not support '-mstack-protector-guard-symbol', so this results in no functional change for ARCH=i386 when cross compiling.
