#1546750 — [PATCH] tools build: replace $(CC) -E with $(CPP) for pre-processing

Subject[PATCH] tools build: replace $(CC) -E with $(CPP) for pre-processing
Message-ID<sRpXP-2a2-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
The top-level Makefile defines:

  CPP             = $(CC) -E

So, $(CC) -E can be replaced with $(CPP) and this makes more sense
for pre-processing.

hum, so that'd work for running from top level, but I guess
it fails for compiling from other places..? like tools/perf

I thought users are supposed to build tools from the top-level, but
seems it is not necessarily true
according to your statement.

I am not quite sure how CC, AS, etc. are set-up, then.
Perhaps, relying on Make-builtin variables?

$ make --print-data-base | grep CPP

showed me the default of CPP is

CPP = $(CC) -E

I guess you are more familiar to the tools-build area,
so I follow your decision.
