-Subject: [PATCH 2/2] llvm: allow env override of exe path
-
-When using a native llvm-config from inside a sysroot, we need llvm-config to
-return the libraries, include directories, etc. from inside the sysroot rather
-than from the native sysroot. Thus provide an env override for calling
-llvm-config from a target sysroot.
-
-To let it work in multilib environment, we need to provide a knob to supply
-multilib dirname as well
-
-Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE-Specific]
