The native ABI vDSO linker script vdso.lds is built by preprocessing vdso.lds.S, with the native -mabi flag passed in to get the correct ABI definitions. Unfortunately however certain toolchains choke on -mabi=64 without a corresponding compatible -march flag, for example: cc1: error: ‘-march=mips32r2’ is not compatible with the selected ABI scripts/Makefile.build:338: recipe for target 'arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds' failed Fix this by including ccflags-vdso in the KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for vdso.lds, which includes the appropriate -march flag.
