make was specifically designed so that by default, it would only compile things whose dependencies had changed since last run.
If your kernel config had not selected the object before, and all you do is add it as a module, then when you rerun make, only that module should be recompiled. However if you do built-in to module or vice versa, you're out of luck. On Nov 9, 2012 12:58 AM, ifj.
