[CC trimmed; To = Lorenzo] Hi Lorenzo, I've seen the news from , and thought this recent experiment in the build system of the Linux man-pages project might seem relevant to you. > Date: 2026-08-30 18:55:19+0200 > From: Alejandro Colomar > > Hi Ingo, > > > Date: 2026-08-30 16:51:24+0200 > > From: Alejandro Colomar > > > > Ingo complained that the size of the database is huge.

Thus, I've dropped this change. I can live with a > somewhat-larger database, and make(1) seems to be fast with it. The Linux man-pages Makefile-only build system uses explicit rules everywhere, listing all target files in our makefile rules. We use 'static pattern rules' almost everywhere. Here's for example the rule we use to build the C programs in the EXAMPLES sections of manual pages: ext ::= .o xfail ::= $(MAKEFILEDIR)/build/examples/cc.xfail tgts ::= $(patsubst %.c, %$(ext), $(_EX_TU_c)) ifeq ($(SKIP_XFAIL),yes) tgts ::= $(filter-out $(patsubst %.c, $(_MANDIR)/%$(ext), $(file < $(xfail))), $(tgts)) endif _EX_TU_o ::= $(tgts) $(_EX_TU_o): %$(ext): %.c $(MK) $(info $(INFO_)CC $@) $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS_) $(CPPFLAGS_) -o $@ $< Recently (as shown in the quoted text above), I thought using regular 'pattern rules' might improve the build times, as the database used by make(1) wouldn't need expanding all that text at once when defining the rules, and indeed reduces that database to 1/3rd of the original size. However, after trying it, the build times of a full build worsened by orders of magnitude, and the time of a no-op build was only reduced by fractions of a second (since it only takes a fraction of a second in the first place). I believe 'static pattern rules' go through simpler decision paths within make(1), which might be the reason for the performance differences I've experimented. From what I've seen, the kernel seems to use regular 'pattern rules' extensively. I wonder if moving to 'static pattern rules' would bring a benefit similar to the one we experience in the Linux man-pages project. Another important thing is that the build system of the Linux man-pages uses a single make(1) process to build (i.e., we don't use recursive make(1)). That makes it parallelize better. I'm not sure whether the kernel makefiles are recursive (for the main build) and how much that affects the kernel build. It might be something to check too, as I remember it was very impactful. Recursive make(1) is considered harmful by some (I agree, IME). Have a lovely day!
