Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] Makefile: rust-analyzer target: better error handling
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2024 13:54:52 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240620205453.81799-2-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240620205453.81799-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>
1) Provide a better error message for the "Rust not available" case.
Without this patch, one gets various misleading messages, such as:
"No rule to make target 'rust-analyzer'"
Instead, run scripts/rust_is_available.sh directly, as a prerequisite,
and let that script report the cause of any problems, as well as
providing a link to the documentation. Thanks to Miguel Ojeda for the
idea of just letting rust_is_available.sh report its results directly.
The new output in the failure case looks like this:
$ make rust-analyzer
***
*** Rust compiler 'rustc' could not be found.
***
***
*** Please see Documentation/rust/quick-start.rst for details
*** on how to set up the Rust support.
***
make[1]: *** [/kernel_work/linux-github/Makefile:1975: rust-analyzer] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2
