When building to record the mcount locations the kernel uses KBUILD_CFLAGS but not KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. This means it lacks -Qunused-arguments when building with clang, resulting in a lot of noisy warnings.
Signed-off-by: Joel Stanley <[email protected]> --- Not sure why -Qunused-arguments is in CPP instead of KBUILD_CFLAGS. We could instead put it in KBUILD_CFLAGS, and not need this patch. scripts/Makefile.build | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/scripts/Makefile.build b/scripts/Makefile.build index 5a2d1c9578a0..54da4b070db3 100644 --- a/scripts/Makefile.build +++ b/scripts/Makefile.build @@ -219,7 +219,7 @@ else sub_cmd_record_mcount = set -e ; perl $(srctree)/scripts/recordmcount.pl "$(ARCH)" \ "$(if $(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN),big,little)" \ "$(if $(CONFIG_64BIT),64,32)" \ - "$(OBJDUMP)" "$(OBJCOPY)" "$(CC) $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)" \ + "$(OBJDUMP)" "$(OBJCOPY)" "$(CC) $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)" \ "$(LD) $(KBUILD_LDFLAGS)" "$(NM)" "$(RM)" "$(MV)" \ "$(if $(part-of-module),1,0)" "$(@)"; recordmcount_source := $(srctree)/scripts/recordmcount.pl -- 2.17.1
