That's probably it. If I strip down your advanced original example to just
make defconfig
make HOSTCFLAGS=-S
then I get a similar error:
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
scripts/basic/fixdep: 1: scripts/basic/fixdep: .file: not found
scripts/basic/fixdep: 2: scripts/basic/fixdep: .comm: not found
scripts/basic/fixdep: 3: scripts/basic/fixdep: .comm: not found
scripts/basic/fixdep: 4: scripts/basic/fixdep: .comm: not found
scripts/basic/fixdep: 5: scripts/basic/fixdep: .comm: not found
scripts/basic/fixdep: 6: scripts/basic/fixdep: .section: not found
and so forth. The problem is that, with -S, fixdep isn't build as an
executable:
jim@krebstar:~/linux-next/scripts/basic$ file fixdep
fixdep: assembler source, ASCII text
jim@krebstar:~/linux-next/scripts/basic$ more fixdep
.file "fixdep.c"
.comm insert_extra_deps,4,4
.comm target,8,8
.comm depfile,8,8
.comm cmdline,8,8
.section .rodata
I'm guessing that in your original example you wanted to look at the
assembly output gcc produced; you'd probably have better luck using
objdump for that.
