Re: Cross compiling Kernel with all options enabled and compiler wrapper

For this, I want to compile the NetBSD kernel with all options enabled
so that there is as much as possible to analyze (akin to the
allyesconfig for Linux). I was able to compile the kernel (including
userland) on my Linux machine using build.sh, but I am still not
completely understanding how the build process works.
Note that some options may be mutually exclusive and some code paths are
alternatives, so a single configuration will not give full coverage even
for a specific platform.
Also, I need the compiler to give me an intermediate representation of
the kernel for the tools that I want to test. This can be accomplished
by gllvm, which means the toolchain needs to use a compiler wrapper
instead of the freshly built clang directly. As far as I understand it,
build.sh needs to be modified in order to use a different binary as the
clang compiler.
Would the compilation database be good enough?
https://www.netbsd.org/~joerg/json.diff
is an old patch to automatically create fragments during compilation. A
full compilation db file can be obtained from that with minimal
post-processing.
