I would like to *strongly* suggest adding the following feature to
Kbuild -- a file which can hold one's own make variables in any one
object (not source!) directory.
It's ridiculous to have to type:
[incidentally, the BIARCH test in arch/i386/Makefile doesn't seem to
work with CC='ccache gcc' for some reason...]
make O=o.i386 ARCH=i386 CC='ccache gcc -m32' FDARGS='ro root=/dev/hda1
...' isoimage
... over and over, and if you get something wrong, your object tree is
toast.
Logically speaking, it would work as if the main Makefile had near the top:
-include $(O)/.makeflags
... except of course with the proper logic to derive the object
directory. This is *highly* complicated by the fact that Kbuild uses
$(origin), and treats command-line sourced options differently, this is
why this is an RFE and not a patch.
Thanks,
-hpa
