Heh, right, that is what I get for not paying attention and rushing at the end of my day :) thanks for being pendantic, I will get that ironed out for v2, which I should have out later today or tomorrow, time permitting.

But this is not an assembler flag! quiet_cmd_vdso32as = VDSO32A $@ cmd_vdso32as = $(VDSOCC) $(a_flags) $(CC32FLAGS) $(AS32FLAGS) -c -o $@ $< where ifdef CROSS32_COMPILE VDSOCC := $(CROSS32_COMPILE)gcc else VDSOCC := $(CC) endif The name of the make variable AS32FLAGS is a bit misleading. This variable does not hold arguments to as, it holds arguments to the compiler driver, "gcc". Segher

Ah right! Ok then, I think we might keep the patch's diff, but update the commit message to mention this is a linker flag that's unused since the compiler is being invoked but not the linker (the compiler is being used as the driver to assemble a single assembler source without linking it; linking is then driven by the linker in a separate make rule).

The underwhelming GCC source code for this is
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/gcc.cc;h=d629ca5e424ad3120be13e82b9f38b7bf8f1cdf2;hb=HEAD#l1148
which says that the -s flag is passed through unmodified to the linker
when invoking the linker. See #l603 for the %{s} specs syntax.
This is not a flag to the assembler at all. It is a flag to the
compiler, which passes it on to the linker :-)

Do you have any more info where you found this? I don't see -s documented as an assembler flag. https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/PowerPC_002dOpts.html https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Invoking.html The patch seems fine to me, but what was this ever supposed to be?

[PATCH 06/14] powerpc/vdso: Remove unused '-s' flag from ASFLAGS
When clang's -Qunused-arguments is dropped from KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, it warns that ASFLAGS contains '-s', which is a linking phase option, so it is unused. clang-16: error: argument unused during compilation: '-s' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument] Looking at the GAS sources, '-s' is only useful when targeting Solaris and it is ignored for the powerpc target so just drop the flag altogether, as it is not needed.
