From ec4c28276c140a9338700041112f64f8d7ccc3e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Chancellor Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2026 12:10:28 -0700 Subject: kbuild: Consolidate C dialect options Introduce CC_FLAGS_DIALECT to make it easier to update the various places in the tree that rely on the GNU C standard and Microsoft extensions flags atomically. All remaining uses of '-std=gnu11' and '-fms-extensions' are in the tools directory (which has its own build system) and other standalone Makefiles. This will allow the kernel to use a narrower option to enable the Microsoft anonymous tagged structure extension in a simpler manner. Place the CC_FLAGS_DIALECT block after the configuration include (so that a future change can move the selection of the flag to Kconfig) but before the arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile include (so that CC_FLAGS_DIALECT is available for use in those Makefiles).
