From 924dd50bc4ad26612efbc75f7e60492c5faaa868 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Neuling Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 14:59:07 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix error when cross building TAGS & cscope MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Currently if I cross build TAGS or cscope from x86 I get this: % make ARCH=powerpc TAGS gcc-4.8.real: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mbig-endian’ GEN TAGS % I'm not setting CROSS_COMPILE= as logically I shouldn't need to and I haven't needed to in the past when building TAGS or cscope. Also, the above completess correct as the error is not fatal to the build. This was caused by: commit d72b08017161ab385d4ae080ea415c9eb7ceef83 Author: Ian Munsie powerpc: Add ability to build little endian kernels The below fixes this by testing for the -mbig-endian option before adding it. I've not done the same thing in the little endian case as if -mlittle-endian doesn't exist, we probably want to fail quickly as you probably have an old big endian compiler.
