  Including from tools/lib can create inadvertent dependencies. Install
libsubcmd in the objtool build and then include the headers from
there.

Hi Ian,

Is there a reason for distinguishing between $(LIBSUBCMD_DESTDIR) and
$(LIBSUBCMD_OUTPUT)?

I believe the naming aligns with their use when passed to the
corresponding sub-make variable, so "DESTDIR=$(LIBSUBCMD_DESTDIR)". It
is possible to do other this, a slightly different convention is in
some BPF related code:

Thanks,
Ian

After a make, "git status" shows:

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
	tools/objtool/libsubcmd/

So tools/objtool/.gitignore needs an update.

Similar to Nicolas' comment, it's confusing to have two variables with
the same value.  Please s/LIBSUBCMD_DESTDIR/LIBSUBCMD_OUTPUT/

As far as I can tell, this CFLAGS addition is both ineffective (it's
overwritten later) and unnecessary (it's made redundant by the same
addition to the INCLUDES variable).

Done.

Done. I feel this is more of a meta question for the standard in the
current build. DESTDIR is related to installation, in this case header
files, OUTPUT is a build directory. Anyway, LIBSUBCMD_DESTDIR is gone
in v4.

Agreed, removed in v4.
