Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] kbuild: Add support for 'as-instr' to be used in Kconfig files
Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2020 11:30:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200115113008.3334-2-catalin.marinas@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200115113008.3334-1-catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Similar to 'cc-option' or 'ld-option', it is occasionally necessary to
check whether the assembler supports certain ISA extensions. In the
arm64 code we currently do this in Makefile with an additional define:

lseinstr := $(call as-instr,.arch_extension lse,-DCONFIG_AS_LSE=1)

Add the 'as-instr' option so that it can be used in Kconfig directly:

	def_bool $(as-instr,.arch_extension lse)
