Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] kbuild, x86: Track generated headers with generated-y
Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2016 13:37:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453210670-12596-2-git-send-email-james.hogan@imgtec.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1453210670-12596-1-git-send-email-james.hogan@imgtec.com>

Track generated header files which aren't already in genhdr-y, alongside
generic-y wrappers in the */include/generated/[uapi/]asm/ directories.
Currently only x86 generates extra headers in these directories, for the
purposes of enumerating system calls for different ABIs, and xen
hypercalls.

This will allow the asm-generic wrapper handling code to remove stale
wrappers when files are removed from generic-y, without also removing
these headers which are generated separately.
