commit de3ee3f63400a23954e7c1ad1cb8c20f29ab6fe3 upstream. This change enables to extend CFLAGS and LDFLAGS from command line, e.g. to extend compiler checks: make USERCFLAGS=-Werror USERLDFLAGS=-static USERCFLAGS and USERLDFLAGS are documented in Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst and Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.rst This should be backported (down to 5.10) to improve previous kernel versions testing as well.

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.
