Subject: [PATCH v2 4/7] PPC: split xen-syms linking rule
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 14:01:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <85bc5cc5-285e-481f-bacd-8421abae169c@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <9a78fdea-08ba-4e04-bfa1-ba09730a300b@suse.com>
Doing so, besides (hopefully) adding clarity (not the least by way of
[re-]using pattern rules where possible), also avoids explicit recursive
$(MAKE) invocations.
By re-using the generic rules introduced when the respective x86 rule was
split,
- the .map file now isn't created after the final binary anymore,
- --strip-debug is passed to $(LD) during early linking passes (for
consistency the option is also explicitly added to the optional linking
pass rule),
- CONFIG_{SUPPRESS_DUPLICATE_SYMBOL_WARNINGS,ENFORCE_UNIQUE_SYMBOLS} are
now properly respected.
Orphan section checking, otoh, is getting suppressed for now, until the
about a dozen warnings which would result have been taken care of.
