From a84ea657d4ff955ea27d3c2518e7eb124f4e61d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Burton Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2025 18:11:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] linux-firmware: skip ldflags sanity check Some of the firmware blobs, for example qcom/apq8016/modem.mbn, are actually ELF files. We don't want to hold these to our exacting standard for link flags because we're not building them and they don't run on the target directly. Note that as this check parses the output of ${OBJDUMP} -p it behaves differently with binutils vs llvm. It looks like binutils bails early as it doesn't know what the target architecture is, whereas LLVM is more comprehensive in its support.
