Re: About Kbuild in ARM

["Yu Alex" <byu@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

My means is, in current arch/arm/Makefile, it can't support remove auto-generated file named file_name.[ch] when "make clean", even we add it into "clean-files".

For explaining more clear, I make a demo. It can run for Linux-2.6.24.2 under env RHL ES4.0, GNU Make 3.80, GCC 4.1.1;
We can install it to mach-example, we assume use "realview" in installing steps that list as following:
    $    cd  linux-2.6.24.2/arch/arm/mach-realview
    $ tar jzvf mk_amp_drv.tar.bz2
    add a line "obj-y +=mk_amp_drv" at the bottom of file named arch/arm/mach-realview/Makefile.
    $ cd linux-2.6.24.2
    $ arm-make distclean; arm-make realview_defconfig; arm-make
    $ arm-make clean;

        Note: arm-make is the command line which used for cross-compile the ARM Linux.

Some file we listed in "clean-files" can't be removed.

Alex
