Please use CC_HAS_MIN_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT (from arch/Kconfig), which already checks for support for this option. > config HAVE_SHADOW_CALL_STACK > def_bool $(cc-option,-fsanitize=shadow-call-stack) > diff --git a/arch/riscv/Makefile b/arch/riscv/Makefile > index 06de9d365088..74628ad8dcf8 100644 > --- a/arch/riscv/Makefile > +++ b/arch/riscv/Makefile > @@ -14,8 +14,13 @@ endif > ifeq ($(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE),y) > LDFLAGS_vmlinux += --no-relax > KBUILD_CPPFLAGS += -DCC_USING_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY > +ifeq ($(CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG),y) Same here, please invert this and use ifdef CONFIG_CC_HAS_MIN_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT like the main Makefile does. > + cflags_ftrace_align := -falign-functions=4 > +else > + cflags_ftrace_align := -fmin-function-alignment=4 > +endif > ifeq ($(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C),y) > - CC_FLAGS_FTRACE := -fpatchable-function-entry=4 > + CC_FLAGS_FTRACE := -fpatchable-function-entry=4 $(cflags_ftrace_align) > else > CC_FLAGS_FTRACE := -fpatchable-function-entry=2 > endif > > -- > 2.43.0 > >
