Subject: [PATCH 6/6] randstruct: Enable Clang support
Date: Tue,  3 May 2022 13:55:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220503205503.3054173-7-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220503205503.3054173-1-keescook@chromium.org>

Clang 15 will support randstruct via the -frandomize-layout-seed-file=...
option. Update the Kconfig and Makefile to recognize this feature.
