Hi Anthony, On 21/04/2020 17:11, Anthony PERARD wrote: Instead of generating the CFLAGS in Rules.mk everytime we enter a new subdirectory, we are going to generate most of them a single time, and export the result in the environment so that Rules.mk can use it. The only flags left to be generated are the ones that depend on the targets, but the variable $(c_flags) takes care of that. Arch specific CFLAGS are generated by a new file "arch/*/arch.mk" which is included by the root Makefile. We export the *FLAGS via the environment variables XEN_*FLAGS because Rules.mk still includes Config.mk and would add duplicated flags to CFLAGS. When running Rules.mk in the root directory (xen/), the variable `root-make-done' is set, so `need-config' will remain undef and so the root Makefile will not generate the cflags again. We can't use CFLAGS in subdirectories to add flags to particular targets, instead start to use CFLAGS-y. Idem for AFLAGS. So there are two different CFLAGS-y, the one in xen/Makefile (and arch.mk), and the one in subdirs that Rules.mk is going to use. We can't add to XEN_CFLAGS because it is exported, so making change to it might be propagated to subdirectory which isn't intended. Some style change are introduced in this patch: when LDFLAGS_DIRECT is included in LDFLAGS use of CFLAGS-$(CONFIG_INDIRECT_THUNK) instead of ifeq(). The LTO change hasn't been tested properly, as LTO is marked as broken.
