Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] kconfig: Remove the architecture specific config for Propeller
Date: Wed, 27 May 2026 14:45:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260527214510.3907973-3-xur@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260527214510.3907973-1-xur@google.com>

From: Rong Xu <xur@google.com>

The CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG option currently depends on
ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG, but this dependency seems unnecessary.

Remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_PROPELLER_CLANG and allow users to control
Propeller builds solely through CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG. This simplifies
the kconfig and avoids potential confusion.

For arm64, change vmlinux.lds.S to ensure the .llvm_bb_addr_map is
explicitly placed within its own section.
