Sounds good. > I haven't thought about that, no - in that case the parent `Makefile` > would need to be the one in `drivers`? Or am I missing something? I think `drivers/gpu/` should also work. Maybe it works inside a deeper one, but I don't recall trying that. So essentially you can move both `nova-drm` and `nova-core` (and the exports of course) there, and then since everything is in a single `Makefile`, we can just add the dependency between them as a standard Make one. I think you don't even need their old `Makefile`s anymore, and that avoids the double building and so on and so forth. You still need to emit the metadata, but I think we can pass the flag, avoiding the custom rule too. Cheers, Miguel
