From: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slus...@gmail.com> It seems gcc (4.7.2) defines _FORTIFY_SOURCE internally and becomes confused when it sees another definition in flags.
For me, build failed like this: CHK glibc Makefile:548: *** No gnu/libc-version.h found, please install glibc-dev[el]/glibc-static. Stop. and only with V=1 it printed: <command-line>:0:0: error: "_FORTIFY_SOURCE" redefined [-Werror] <stdin>:1:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition Signed-off-by: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slus...@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mi...@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <pau...@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijls...@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1361113416-8662-1-git-send-email-marcin.slus...@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <a...@redhat.com> --- tools/perf/Makefile | 8 +++++++- 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/Makefile b/tools/perf/Makefile index a2108ca..bb74c79 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Makefile +++ b/tools/perf/Makefile @@ -95,7 +95,7 @@ ifeq ("$(origin DEBUG)", "command line") PERF_DEBUG = $(DEBUG) endif ifndef PERF_DEBUG - CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE = -O6 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 + CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE = -O6 endif ifdef PARSER_DEBUG @@ -180,6 +180,12 @@ ifeq ($(call try-cc,$(SOURCE_HELLO),$(CFLAGS) -Werror -Wvolatile-register-var,-W CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -Wvolatile-register-var endif +ifndef PERF_DEBUG + ifeq ($(call try-cc,$(SOURCE_HELLO),$(CFLAGS) -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2),y) + CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 + endif +endif + ### --- END CONFIGURATION SECTION --- ifeq ($(srctree),) -- 1.7.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
