Normally Gnu Make will try a lot of internal rules to deal with <`scripts/basic/.fixdep.cmd'>, why here Gnu Make stop trying internal ruls so quickly?
Internal rules are disabled in kbuild, see the toplevel Makefile: # Do not: # o use make's built-in rules and variables # (this increases performance and avoids hard-to-debug behaviour); # o print "Entering directory ..."; MAKEFLAGS += -rR --no-print-directory The rule for _shipped files is in scripts/Makefile.lib Michal -- 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
