Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH for-next] Makefile: delete default rules
Date: Sat, 5 Nov 2016 22:05:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161105210508.7930-1-arnout@mind.be> (raw)
We don't use the default implicit rules that are added by make, so
they just slow down the Makefile processing. The default implicit
rules can be removed by defining an empty .SUFFIXES: target.
This speeds up the start of the build on my machine from 5.6s to
4.9s.
