[Buildroot] make help add-in

[David Bonnin]

Hello,

Because, i start to use BR:
     - I add manually files to output/target.
     - add files to output/staging  (was a mistake ;) )
     - start develop own package (without UNINSTALL_TARGET_CMDS in 
developement phase).
     - start make own board/defconfig ( with a lot ajustements).

So i do a lot of times cleaning target output folder:

find output/build/ -name .stamp_target_installed -exec rm {} \;
rm output/build/.root output/build/.customize
rm -rf output/target
rm -rf output/stamps/ext-toolchain-installed

is there a such target?

or an idea to put it in...

[Buildroot] [PATCH] Add "make target-clean" to clean TARGET_DIR

[David Bonnin]

For me, cleaning TARGET_DIR is enough.
Cleaning .stamp_staging_installed isn't necessary.
If need to clean staging, it means you have modifiy the package it self, 
so you need to rebuild packages that depends on this one. (if understand 
well ;) ).
David.

  Should be rm -f to avoid error if the stamp file doesn't exist.

  $(STAMP_DIR)/ct-ng-toolchain-installed should also be removed.

  $(GCC_BUILD_DIR3)/.installed should also be removed, if an internal
toolchain is used.

  Staging dir should probably also be removed, else it doesn't work correctly when
you remove a library (configure script would detect it as still being present
and would link against it).  But of course, removing a library is anyway problematic
(as David pointed out) because the executables that have been compiled against
it will not be recompiled.  If staging dir is removed, it's possible that
some more stamp files will have to be removed as well, too.

  I'm a bit afraid that this change is risky, in the sense that it is easy to
forget to remove some stamp files.  OTOH, I think it's a very useful feature.
So there are three ways we can deal with that:

- Be very strict and not support this feature.

- Include the feature and deal with the issues that are reported on the list
   when they occur.

- Include the feature and add a test for it in the autobuilders.  E.g., after
   generating a rootfs, save it, do a target-clean, recreate the rootfs, and
   compare.

  Arnout
