I took inspiration from the CC_USING_FENTRY handling in linux/Makefile. The following code worked for me: CC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL := $(call cc-option, -pg -mprofile-kernel -DCC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL) CC_FLAGS_FTRACE := $(CC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL) KBUILD_CPPFLAGS += $(CC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL) I just do not understand why we need to add the flags also to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. It seems that they are duplicated when compiling kernel/livepatch/core.o. But livepatching did not work without it. I wonder if you found the culprit.
