[PATCH 1/2] kbuild: simplify cmd_mod

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

 



From: Mahesh Kumar Kalikot Veetil <mkalikot@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Modules with a large number of compilation units can exceed execv
argument list resulting in E2BIG (Argument list too long) error.

Fix this by replacing shell 'echo > file' into a more native
$(file op filename[,text]) option.
