From 3b6407b8ed95594de6ee4fddd3239e8841b4d2d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Rini Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2018 19:15:03 -0400 Subject: clang: Update documentation As of clang-5.0, things have changed a bit. First, we cannot automatically guess -target values as if we do not pass one with CC then cc-option will fail. Second, to disable movt/movw relocations the argument has become -mno-movt. Related to the target part, we cannot use arm-none-eabi as that ends up being too generic of an ARM target for things like say rpi_3_32b to work.
