Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: Let kernel-doc.py use PYTHON3 override
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2025 13:14:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251103131419.5e504ae2@endymion> (raw)
It is possible to force a specific version of python to be used when
building the kernel by passing PYTHON3= on the make command line.
However kernel-doc.py is currently called with python3 hard-coded and
thus ignores this setting.
Use PYTHON3 to call kernel-doc.py so that the desired version of
python is used.
