Makefile: Fix GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR prefix for Clang cross compilation

2020-07-23T02:29:07Z

When CROSS_COMPILE is set (e.g. aarch64-linux-gnu-), if $(CROSS_COMPILE)elfedit is found at /usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-elfedit, GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR will be set to /usr/bin/. --prefix= will be set to /usr/bin/ and Clang as of 11 will search for both $(prefix)aarch64-linux-gnu-$needle and $(prefix)$needle. GCC searchs for $(prefix)aarch64-linux-gnu/$version/$needle, $(prefix)aarch64-linux-gnu/$needle and $(prefix)$needle. In practice, $(prefix)aarch64-linux-gnu/$needle rarely contains executables. To better model how GCC's -B/--prefix takes in effect in practice, newer Clang (since https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/3452a0d8c17f7166f479706b293caf6ac76ffd90) only searches for $(prefix)$needle. Currently it will find /usr/bin/as instead of /usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-as. Set --prefix= to $(GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR)$(notdir $(CROSS_COMPILE)) (/usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-) so that newer Clang can find the appropriate cross compiling GNU as (when -no-integrated-as is in effect).

kbuild: make Clang build userprogs for target architecture

2020-07-01T15:58:00Z

Programs added 'userprogs' should be compiled for the target architecture i.e. the same architecture as the kernel. GCC does this correctly since the target architecture is implied by the toolchain prefix. Clang builds userspace programs always for the host architecture because the target triple is currently missing. Fix this.
