If gcc is warning you that pipe and save-temps are incompatible, then in the gccs that I've used, save-temps wins, and you get .s and .i files generated. You are probably getting fooled by where the temp files go. They go into the current working directory, which is usually the base of the linux kernel tree for kbuild. Let us know if it's something else, like a gcc version where pipe trumps save-temps. -- Ed L Cashin <ecashin@xxxxxxxxxx> -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
