More like: - $(Q)qemu-system-$(QEMU_ARCH) -display none -no-reboot -kernel "$(srctree)/$(IMAGE)" -serial stdio $(QEMU_ARGS) > "$(CURDIR)/run.out" + $(Q)qemu-system-$(QEMU_ARCH) -display none -no-reboot -kernel "$(OUTPUT)$(IMAGE)" -serial stdio $(QEMU_ARGS) > "$(CURDIR)/run.out" My assumption was that it's weird that we need to define such variables ourselves. Using an empty $(OUTPUT) would have been fine if make is run from the root of the kernel tree. But that is not the case. It still feels weird but I can't think of a nicer way, and it's not a big issue. So let's keep that part the same. Or maybe Willy has a better idea.
