[v6,1/4] mk: introduce helper to check valid compiler argument
Checks
Commit Message
From: Jerin Jacob <jerinj@marvell.com>
Introduce rte_cc_has_argument() Makefile helper to
check a given argument is support by the compiler.
Example Usage:
include $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.helper.mk
MACHINE_CFLAGS += $(call rte_cc_has_argument, -mcpu=octeontx2)
This would allow adding -mcpu=octeontx2 in MACHINE_CFLAGS
if it is only supported by the compiler. The use case for such
scheme is to enable the mcpu optimization if the compiler
supports else it needs to compile the source code without
any errors.
This patch also moves inclusion of toolchain's rte.vars.mk
to before the machine's rte.vars.mk inclusion to make
correct CC available for the cross compile case.

Change history of this series:
v2 Changes:
- Add meson build support.
v3 Changes:
- Squash meson build support into config support for thunderx2/octeontx2.
v4 Changes:
- Fix incorrect signoff marrvell -> marvell.
v5 Changes:
- Fix incorrect meson flag parsing(Phil Yang)
- Squash meson cross build patch(5/5) into configuration update patches for
thunderx2(3/5) and octeontx2(4/5)(Thomas)
- Changed octeontx2's march as armv8-a and added the extension required
instead of armv8-2a(Phil Yang)
- Improved rte_cc_has_argument() implementaion by removing the temp
file(Thomas)
v6 Changes:
- Rework to change the config files to sync with "mk: use linux and freebsd in config names"
- Fix the following error with latest gcc by fixing the mcpu type
cc1: error: switch -mcpu=armv8.2-a conflicts with -march=armv8-a switch
