Subject: [PATCH 08/12] Makefile: disable default implicit rules
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 09:51:24 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100126155124.GI4895@progeny.tock> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100126154357.GA4895@progeny.tock>
The git makefile never uses any default implicit rules.
Unfortunately, if a prerequisite for one of the intended rules is
missing, a default rule can be used in its place:
$ make var.s
CC var.s
$ rm var.c
$ make var.o
as -o var.o var.s
Avoiding the default rules avoids this hard-to-debug behavior.
It also should speed things up a little in the normal case.
Future patches may restrict the scope of the %.o: %.c pattern.
This patch would then ensure that for targets not listed, we do
not fall back to the default rule.

Sadly, this does not really speed things up in the normal case.
I am not sure why, but make needs the -r option to avoid
considering the default rules, even though clearing the .SUFFIXES:
guarantees it will never use them.
