Hi,

This problem has puzzled me for a long time. A normal C make file could parse 
the reliance and just regenerate the modified source file. But each time when I 
modified the kernel and recompile it, it does a complete compilation, no matter 
whether make mrproper is used or not. It's quite time consuming and inefficient.


So why kernel make file couldn't do what a normal C make file could do? Or 
maybe it could but I got something wrong? 


If a complete compilation is inevitable, how to make it faster? I only know the 
-jX option.


Best regards
Michael
