Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: rust: avoid creating temporary files
Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2023 07:52:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230718055235.1050223-1-ojeda@kernel.org> (raw)

`rustc` outputs by default the temporary files (i.e. the ones saved
by `-Csave-temps`, such as `*.rcgu*` files) in the current working
directory when `-o` and `--out-dir` are not given (even if
`--emit=x=path` is given, i.e. it does not use those for temporaries).

Since out-of-tree modules are compiled from the `linux` tree,
`rustc` then tries to create them there, which may not be accessible.

Thus pass `--out-dir` explicitly, even if it is just for the temporary
files.
