Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Fix 'no symbols' warning when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSD_KSYMS=y
Date: Sun, 15 Aug 2021 08:41:02 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210814234102.2315551-1-masahiroy@kernel.org> (raw)

When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, I see some warnings like this:

  nm: arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/note.o: no symbols

$NM (both GNU nm and llvm-nm) warns when no symbol is found in the
object. Suppress the stderr.

Fixes: bbda5ec671d3 ("kbuild: simplify dependency generation for CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS")
