The KBUILD_ARFLAGS addition in arch/powerpc/Makefile has never worked in a useful way because it is always overridden by the following code in the top Makefile: # use the deterministic mode of AR if available KBUILD_ARFLAGS := $(call ar-option,D) The code in the top Makefile was added in 2011, by commit40df759e2b("kbuild: Fix build with binutils <= 2.19"). The KBUILD_ARFLAGS addition for ppc has always been dead code from the beginning. Nobody has reported a problem since43c9127d94("powerpc: Add option to use thin archives"), so this code was unneeded.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
