Hi,
Please can someone try to explain what is going on when I ask for a .S
file to be built to an object with 5.19 and GNU make 4.3 from Debian
Bullseye (although I don't think this is a make version issue):
$ rm ../build/multi/arch/arm/lib/findbit.o
$ make -j2 CROSS_COMPILE="arm-linux-gnueabihf-" ARCH="arm" O=../build/multi arch/arm/lib/findbit.o
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/rmk/git/build/multi'
GEN Makefile
CALL /home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
CALL /home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/arm/lib/findbit.o'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [/home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/scripts/Makefile.build:441: __build] Error 2
make[1]: *** [/home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/Makefile:1843: arch/arm] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
AS arch/arm/lib/findbit.o
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/rmk/git/build/multi'
make: *** [Makefile:219: __sub-make] Error 2
If I re-run it without removing the generated object, I get:
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/rmk/git/build/multi'
GEN Makefile
CALL /home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
CALL /home/rmk/git/linux-rmk/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'arch/arm/lib/findbit.o'.

Note the "make[3]:" line, which ought not be there.
If I run make with V=1 in addition:

Clearly, kbuild knows how to do this, because it issued the appropriate
command to create the object file!
If I don't use -j2, then make fails at the error without building
findbit.o.
Mike Rapport reports similar issues to me, so it seems it's not just me
encountering this problem.
Any ideas why the kbuild infrastructure thinks it can't build a .o from
a .S file?
Thanks.
