From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fc2b47b55f17fd996f7a01975ce1c33c2f2513f6 ] It believe it is a bad idea to hardcode a specific compiler prefix that may or may not be installed on a user's system. It is annoying when testing features that should not require compilers at all. For example, mrproper, headers_install, etc. should work without any compiler. They look like follows on my machine. $ make ARCH=h8300 mrproper ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 26: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: command not found ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 27: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: command not found make: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: Command not found make: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: Command not found [ a bunch of the same error messages continue ] $ make ARCH=h8300 headers_install ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 26: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: command not found ./scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 27: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: command not found make: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: Command not found HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep make: h8300-unknown-linux-gcc: Command not found WRAP arch/h8300/include/generated/uapi/asm/kvm_para.h [ snip ] The solution is to delete this line, or to use cc-cross-prefix like some architectures do. I chose the latter as a moderate fixup. I added an alternative 'h8300-linux-' because it is available at: https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/8.1.0/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/h8300/Makefile | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/h8300/Makefile b/arch/h8300/Makefile index e1c02ca230cb..073bba6f9f60 100644 --- a/arch/h8300/Makefile +++ b/arch/h8300/Makefile @@ -23,7 +23,7 @@ KBUILD_AFLAGS += $(aflags-y) LDFLAGS += $(ldflags-y) ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),) -CROSS_COMPILE := h8300-unknown-linux- +CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, h8300-unknown-linux- h8300-linux-) endif core-y += arch/$(ARCH)/kernel/ arch/$(ARCH)/mm/ -- 2.19.1
