From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 97709069214eb75312c14946803b9da4d3814203 ] ARC kernels have historically been built with -O3, despite top level Makefile defaulting to -O2. This was facilitated by implicitly ordering of arch makefile include AFTER top level assigned -O2. An upstream fix to top level a1c48bb160f ("Makefile: Fix unrecognized cross-compiler command line options") changed the ordering, making ARC -O3 defunct. Fix that by NOT relying on any ordering whatsoever and use the proper arch override facility now present in kbuild (ARCH_*FLAGS) Depends-on: ("kbuild: Allow arch Makefiles to override {cpp,ld,c}flags") Suggested-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@xxxxxxx> Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # 3.16+ Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/arc/Makefile | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/arc/Makefile b/arch/arc/Makefile index 10bc3d4..735292e 100644 --- a/arch/arc/Makefile +++ b/arch/arc/Makefile @@ -43,7 +43,8 @@ endif ifndef CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE # Generic build system uses -O2, we want -O3 -cflags-y += -O3 +# Note: No need to add to cflags-y as that happens anyways +ARCH_CFLAGS += -O3 endif # small data is default for elf32 tool-chain.
