Anything would work, that resolves the '@' to nothing and puts out the command, an environment var or a switch. In older udev releases, before we switched to automake, I had something like this, which behaves a bit like the Linux kernel build, and V=1 switches off the silent mode: V = ifeq ($(strip $(V)),) E = @echo Q = @ else E = @\# Q = endif export E Q ... $(E) " CC " $@ $(Q) $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@ ...
