Recently David Miller ported ftrace over to the sparc64. When I mentioned to him a way to remove the "notrace" from all the functions in some files done by using a dirty little hack, David (correctly) called it "Makefile turd" and told us to stop doing that. I then asked if a CFLAGS_REMOVE_foo.o = -pg would be more pleasing, and he agreed. This patch series starts out by creating a CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basetarget).o that removes options from CFLAGS to compile a target file. The rest of the patches clean up the Makefile turd with this variant. Note, I left the turd in the trace directory itself, just because (almost) all the files there should not be traced. But that's a special directory, and this patch series keeps the sewage in one place. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
