[PATCH] powerpc/boot: Disable power10 features after BOOTAFLAGS assignment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When building the boot wrapper assembly files with clang after
commit 648a1783fe25 ("powerpc/boot: Fix boot wrapper code generation
with CONFIG_POWER10_CPU"), the following warnings appear for each file
built:

  '-prefixed' is not a recognized feature for this target (ignoring feature)
  '-pcrel' is not a recognized feature for this target (ignoring feature)

While it is questionable whether or not LLVM should be emitting a
warning when passed negative versions of code generation flags when
building assembly files (since it does not emit a warning for the
altivec and vsx flags), it is easy enough to work around this by just
moving the disabled flags to BOOTCFLAGS after the assignment of
BOOTAFLAGS, so that they are not added when building assembly files.
Do so to silence the warnings.

I do not think that 648a1783fe25 is truly to blame for this but the
Fixes tag will help the stable team ensure that this change gets
backported with 648a1783fe25. This is the minimal fix for the problem
but the true fix is separating AFLAGS and CFLAGS, which should be done
by this in-flight series by Nick:
