There seems to be an assumption with those options that LDFLAGS are passed to the compiler frontend rather than used directly with ld (which the kernel build process assumes) To prevent build failures in such environments this patch changes the ARM architecture Makefile to override the LDFLAGS from the environment similar to the behaviour on other common architectures e.g. x86 Signed-off-by: Vincent Sanders Signed-off-by: Russell King --- arch/arm/Makefile | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) (limited to 'arch/arm/Makefile') diff --git a/arch/arm/Makefile b/arch/arm/Makefile index 0298b00fe24..f8ebf1e9702 100644 --- a/arch/arm/Makefile +++ b/arch/arm/Makefile @@ -10,6 +10,9 @@ # # Copyright (C) 1995-2001 by Russell King +# Ensure linker flags are correct +LDFLAGS := + LDFLAGS_vmlinux :=-p --no-undefined -X ifeq ($(CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8),y) LDFLAGS_vmlinux += --be8 -- cgit v1.2.3
