Subject: [PATCH] ARC: Don't set CROSS_COMPILE in arch's Makefile
Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2018 23:47:57 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180916204757.31131-1-abrodkin@synopsys.com> (raw)
There's not much sense in doing that because if user or
his build-system didn't set CROSS_COMPILE we still may
very well make incorrect guess.
But as it turned out setting CROSS_COMPILE is not as harmless
as one may think: with recent changes that implemented automatic
discovery of __host__ gcc features unconditional setup of
CROSS_COMPILE leads to failures on execution of "make xxx_defconfig"
with absent cross-compiler, for more info see [1].
Set CROSS_COMPILE as well gets in the way if we want only to build
.dtb's (again with absent cross-compiler which is not really needed
for building .dtb's), see [2].
Note, we had to change LIBGCC assignment type from ":=" to "="
so that is is resolved on its usage, otherwise if it is resolved
at declaration time with missing CROSS_COMPILE we're getting this
error message from host GCC:
------------------------->8-------------------------
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mmedium-calls’
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mno-sdata’; did you mean ‘-fno-stats’?
------------------------->8-------------------------
