[PATCH v2] kbuild: Do not use hyphen in exported variable name

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

 



This definition in Makefile.dtbinst:

    export dtbinst-root ?= $(obj)

should define and export dtbinst-root when handling the root dts
directory, and do nothing in the subdirectories.  However some shells,
including dash, will not pass through environment variables whose name
includes a hyphen.  Usually GNU make does not use a shell to recurse,
but if e.g. $(srctree) contains '~' it will use a shell here.

Rename the variable to dtbinst_root.

Fixes: 323a028d39cdi ("dts, kbuild: Implement support for dtb vendor subdirs")

v2: Revised the commit message to explain exactly how the hyphenated
variable can be lost.
