Subject: Changing external kernel module results in rebuild of whole kernel
Date: Wed, 6 May 2015 08:35:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5549B621.4060008@topic.nl> (raw)
Something in recent OE-core triggered a weird dependency "backfire".
If I change a recipe for a kernel module (a bb recipe that does "inherit
module") this will trigger a rebuild of the whole kernel.
This turns the 5-second job of just updating a single module into a several
minute workout for the build machine, and then causes boards to re-write the
kernel into flash needlessly when upgrading.
I now see this on all projects using OE-core master. I can't really pin what
caused it though. Anyone else seen this?
Kind regards,
