Subject: rebuilding object files from asm files
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2008 19:12:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200802201912.00091.ak@suse.de> (raw)


Here's a small kbuild quirk I noticed on 2.6.25rc2. I tried to rebuild
the obj file of a assembler file (.S) with make path/to/file.o.

Normally when I do this for .o file only its dependencies and 
and the object file are built as I expect.

But with an assembler file (like arch/x86/kernel/head_64.o) kbuild
starts to rebuild everything.
