[gentoo-user] CFLAGs for kernel compilation

2015-04-29 Thread Ralf
Hi, just a short question: I don't like genkernel, I always compile my kernel manually using menuconfig. So the CFLAGs of my make.conf won't get applied. What is the best way to (persistently) set the CFLAGs for the kernel compilation? - I don't like invoking 'CFLAGS="-O2 -march=foo"make' - I do

Damn, you're absolutely right. I just tested it using make V=1. kernel make does override CFLAGs from the outside. But that's interesting: my processor supports -march=core-avx2 and none of the linux kernel processor family uses this flag... Thx Ralf On 04/29/2015 02:41 PM, Emanuele Rusconi w
