When both -march= and -Wa,-march= are specified for assembler or assembler-with-cpp sources, GCC and Clang will prefer the -Wa,-march= value but Clang will warn that -march= is unused. warning: argument unused during compilation: '-march=armv6k' [-Wunused-command-line-argument] This is the top group of warnings we observe when using clang to assemble the kernel via `ARCH=arm make LLVM=1`. Split the arch-y make variable into two, so that -march= flags only get passed to the compiler, not the assembler. -D flags are added to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS which is used for both C and assembler-with-cpp sources. Clang is trying to warn that it doesn't support different values for -march= and -Wa,-march= (like GCC does, but the kernel doesn't need this) though the value of the preprocessor define __thumb2__ is based on -march=. Make sure to re-set __thumb2__ via -D flag for assembler sources now that we're no longer passing -march= to the assembler. Set it to a different value than the preprocessor would for -march= in case -march= gets accidentally re-added to KBUILD_AFLAGS in the future. Thanks to Ard and Nathan for this suggestion.

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.
