Subject: [PATCH v1 0/3] efi/libstub: Build the x86 stub from KBUILD_CFLAGS
Date: Tue,  6 Oct 2026 13:42:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261006204210.i.137-kees@kernel.org> (raw)

Hi!

The x86 EFI stub builds from its own short list of compiler flags instead
of KBUILD_CFLAGS, so options added kernel-wide reach it only when someone
remembers to add them there too (e.g. for -fms-extensions). Swap it
around to remove unwanted options instead, as we do for all the other
architectures.

This will let Clang's -fexperimental-late-parse-attributes reach the
stub build so that __counted_by() will get parsed without error[1].

Thanks!

-Kees
