Subject: [PATCH 5/7] selftests/x86: avoid -no-pie warnings from clang during compilation
Date: Thu,  2 May 2024 20:02:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240503030214.86681-6-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240503030214.86681-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>

First of all, in order to build with clang at all, one must first apply
Valentin Obst's build fix for LLVM [1]. Once that is done, then when
building with clang, via:

    make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...clang warns that -no-pie is "unused during compilation".

This occurs because clang only wants to see -no-pie during linking.
Here, we don't have a separate linking stage, so a compiler warning is
unavoidable without (wastefully) restructuring the Makefile.

Avoid the warning by simply disabling that warning, for clang builds.
