Subject: [PATCH] um: clang: Strip out -mno-global-merge from USER_CFLAGS
Date: Thu,  3 Mar 2022 17:06:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220303090643.241747-1-davidgow@google.com> (raw)

The things built with USER_CFLAGS don't seem to recognise it as a
compiler option, and print a warning:
clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-mno-global-merge' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]

Fixes: 744814d2fa ("um: Allow builds with Clang")
Signed-off-by: David Gow <davidgow@google.com>

This warning shows up after merging:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220227184517.504931-6-keescook@chromium.org/

I'm not 100% sure why this is necessary, but it does seem to work. All
the attempts to get rid of -mno-global-merge entirely have been met with
skepticism, but I'm guessing that it's not a problem for just the UML
"user" files, as they shouldn't(?) interact too much with modules.
