Subject: [PATCH v2] kbuild: install-extmod-build: Properly fix CC expansion when ccache is used
Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2025 08:43:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251111-kbuild-install-extmod-build-fix-cc-expand-third-try-v2-1-15ba1b37e71a@linaro.org> (raw)
Currently, when cross-compiling and ccache is used, the expanding of CC
turns out to be without any quotes, leading to the following error:
make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'. Stop.
make[3]: *** [Makefile:2164: run-command] Error 2
And it makes sense, because after expansion it ends up like this:
make run-command KBUILD_RUN_COMMAND=+$(MAKE) \
HOSTCC=ccache aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc VPATH= srcroot=. $(build)= ...
So add another set of double quotes to surround whatever CC expands to
to make sure the aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc isn't expanded to something that
looks like an entirely separate target.
Fixes: 140332b6ed72 ("kbuild: fix linux-headers package build when $(CC) cannot link userspace")

Changes in v2:
- Moved the new double quotes inside of single ones, to be able
to drop the escape, like Nathan suggested.
- Re-worded the commit message according to the above change.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251110-kbuild-install-extmod-build-fix-cc-expand-third-try-v1-1-5c0ddb1c67a8@linaro.org
