I'm likely missing something obvious, but I cannot get this to work.
With this diff:

$(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.c
clang $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS) $(LINUXINCLUDE) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) \
-D__KERNEL__ -D__ASM_SYSREG_H -Wno-unused-value -Wno-pointer-sign \
- -O2 -emit-llvm -c $< -o -| $(LLC) -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o $@
- clang $(NOSTDINC_FLAGS) $(LINUXINCLUDE) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) \
- -D__KERNEL__ -D__ASM_SYSREG_H -Wno-unused-value -Wno-pointer-sign \
- -O2 -emit-llvm -c $< -o -| $(LLC) -march=bpf -filetype=asm -o $@.s
+ -O2 -target bpf -c $< -o $@

I see far too many errors thrown starting with:

clang -nostdinc -isystem

What am I missing?
