Subject: [PATCH] busybox: Add parallel make fix
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2016 16:28:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1471620497.16712.43.camel@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)

We're seeing regular parallel make failures in applet headers in busybox.
This adds a patch to try and avoid the issue, building upon a fix already
backported from upstream. The patch has been sent to upstream.

[YOCTO #10116]

+When applet_tables is run, we need it to touch both output files,
+else make will keep calling the command, potentially leading to races
+as the files are potentially rewritten.
+
+We also need to ensure that applet_tables is called once, not twice, 
+potentially in parallel. To do this, make one file depend upon the other.
