kbuild: use -S instead of -E for precise cc-option test in Kconfig
[ Upstream commit 3bed1b7b9d
]
Currently, -E (stop after the preprocessing stage) is used to check
whether the given compiler flag is supported.
While it is faster than -S (or -c), it can be false-positive. You need
to run the compilation proper to check the flag more precisely.
For example, -E and -S disagree about the support of
"--param asan-instrument-allocas=1".
$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -E -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ gcc -Werror --param asan-instrument-allocas=1 -S -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null
cc1: error: invalid --param name ‘asan-instrument-allocas’; did you mean ‘asan-instrument-writes’?
$ echo $?
1
