Kbuild.include sounds like a good idea to me. It would also allow to de-duplicate the $(cmd) defition in Makefile.include. BTW: $ time -p make $(perl -e 'print "-f scripts/Kbuild.include "x1500') make: *** No targets. Stop. real 0.44 user 0.18 sys 0.08 So 0.44s in total for the 1500 or so subdirectories we visit during make clean. But the subprocesses can run in parallel, so the real difference is negligible.
