Subject: kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y
I have just committed following patch to kbuild.git.
It deprecate use of EXTRA_CFLAGS, EXTRA_AFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS
in favour of ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y.
This allow us to use a more kbuild alike syntax like the following:
ccflags-$(CONFIG_WHATEVER_DEBUG) := -DDEBUG
The other kbuild enhancements discussed are put on ice for a
few days.
I wanted this enhancement to hit the kernel in the merge window
so we had a better opportunity to fix the in-tree users
of the deprecated users of EXTRA_xFLAGS before next merge window.

kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y
And deprecate use of EXTRA_CFLAGS, EXTRA_AFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS
This patch does not touch any in-tree users - thats next round.
Lets get this committed first and then fix the users of the
deprecated variants next.
The rationale behind this change is to introduce support for
makefile fragments like:
ccflags-$(CONFIG_WHATEVER_DEBUG) := -DDEBUG
As a replacement for the uglier:
ifeq ($(CONFIG_WHATEVER_DEBUG),y)
EXTRA_CFLAGS := -DDEBUG
endif
