[RFC PATCH 01/68] kbuild: skip sub-make for in-tree build with GNU Make 4.x

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Commit 2b50f7ab6368 ("kbuild: add workaround for Debian make-kpkg")
annoyed people who want to wrap the top Makefile with GNUmakefile
or something in order to customize it for their use.

On second thought, we do not need to run the sub-make for in-tree
build with Make 4.x because the 'MAKEFLAGS += -rR' issue only happens
on GNU Make 3.x.

With this commit, people will get back the workflow, and the Debian
make-kpkg will still work.
