Subject: [PATCH] [2/5] kbuild: Check if linker supports the -X option
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2009 22:18:07 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090914201807.F1214B1757@basil.firstfloor.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200909141018.915641783@firstfloor.org>


The new alternative `gold' linker in recent binutils doesn't support
the -X option. This breaks allyesconfig builds that have 
CONFIG_STRIP_ASM_SYMS enabled. Check if the linker really supports
the option using ld-option.

This requires fixes in earlier patches.
