some final observations on Doc.../kbuild/makefiles.txt

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

 



(starting from Section 5 - Kbuild clean infrastructure)

"make clean" deletes most generated files in the obj tree where the
kernel is compiled. This includes generated files such as host
programs."

  - not true.  i believe you need to at least "make mrproper" to get
rid of the generated files in the scripts/ directory.  (in fact, there
appears to be no mention of "make mrproper" anywhere in this doc
file.)

"Note 2: All directories listed in core-y, libs-y, drivers-y and net-y
will be visited during "make clean".

  - i think that should include "init-y" as well, no?

and that should do it.  now i have to get back to work that actually
generates revenue.  :-)
