After trying different approaches of using clangd with kernel my end game is to put O=./clangd for the “clangd build”, which is a host (as target) build with bunch of stuff that you want enable. This makes sense because kernel’s .gitignore has by default .*.

I also learned that for the “real Vim” (not “Gen Z vim”) there is actually quite decent set of plugins to make use of it. Here’s my vim-plug list:

  Plug 'mattn/vim-lsp-settings'
  Plug 'prabirshrestha/asyncomplete-lsp.vim'
  Plug 'prabirshrestha/asyncomplete.vim'
  Plug 'prabirshrestha/vim-lsp'

This is how I would ramp up clangd session while hacking Linux:

make ARCH=x86_64 O=./.clangd x86_64_defconfig
make ARCH=x86_64 O=./.clangd menuconfig
make ARCH=x86_64 O=./.clangd -j`nproc`
scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py -d ./.clangd
