You are right. Once include/config.h is created, it will never be updated. Reverting this hunk would work in most cases, but I think it is strange to use timestamps to determine whether a symbolic link is re-linked or not. If include/config.h is a symlink, it will end up with comparing the timestamps between $(srctree)/$(BOARD)/config.h and include/config/auto.conf, which is pointless. I do not know why 'touch -a $@' is needed when $(srctree)/$(BOARD)/config.h does not exist. How about this? diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 071b927068c4..196a2a2625c8 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -827,7 +827,7 @@ endif prepare2: prepare3 outputmakefile prepare1: prepare2 include/generated/version.h include/generated/utsrelease.h \ - include/config.h + symlink-config-h ifneq ($(KBUILD_MODULES),) $(Q)mkdir -p $(MODVERDIR) @@ -849,16 +849,14 @@ export CPPFLAGS_barebox.lds += -C -U$(ARCH) define symlink-config-h if [ -f $(srctree)/$(BOARD)/config.h ]; then \ - $(kecho) ' SYMLINK $@ -> $(BOARD)/config.h'; \ ln -fsn $(srctree)/$(BOARD)/config.h $@; \ else \ - [ -h $@ ] && rm -f $@; \ - $(kecho) ' CREATE $@'; \ - touch -a $@; \ + rm -f $@; \ fi endef -include/config.h: +PHONY += symlink-config-h +symlink-config-h: $(Q)$(symlink-config-h) # Generate some files -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
