[ Upstream commit d5cbd80e302dfea59726c44c56ab7957f822409f ] When cross compiling x86 on an ARM machine with clang, there are several errors along the lines of: arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h:27:10: error: invalid output constraint '=&c' in asm This happens because the compressed boot Makefile reassigns KBUILD_CFLAGS and drops the clang flags that set the target architecture ('--target=') and the path to the GNU cross tools ('--prefix='), meaning that the host architecture is targeted. These flags are available as $(CLANG_FLAGS) from the main Makefile so add them to the compressed boot folder's KBUILD_CFLAGS so that cross compiling works as expected.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
