Hi, This series changes the Makefile to use relative paths for $(objtree), always setting it to '.', and for $(srctree) setting either to '.' or '..', when building in the source tree or a subdirectory thereof, respectively. The goal is to make compiler messages and Oopses more readable by avoiding the full path to the source/object directory. Patch 2/5 is just an unrelated cleanup. v1->v2: Fix the 'build' and 'source' symlinks in /lib/modules Michal Marek (5): firmware: Simplify directory creation firmware: Use $(quote) in the Makefile kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree) kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree kbuild: Use relative path when building in a subdir of the source tree Makefile | 18 ++++++++++++++---- firmware/Makefile | 34 +++++++--------------------------- scripts/Makefile.fwinst | 24 +++++++++++------------- 3 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 44 deletions(-) -- 1.8.4.5 -- 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
