Subject: [Buildroot] [RFC PATCH v1 2/2] linux: Add host-pahole as linux dependencies if selected by user.
Date: Tue, 21 Dec 2021 15:54:29 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211221145428.43829-3-flaniel@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211221145428.43829-1-flaniel@linux.microsoft.com>
If user set BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_PAHOLE, we add host-pahole to linux dependencies in
case the user also wants to compile the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_BTF_INFO which
relies on pahole to generate BTF information used by CO-RE BPF tools.
