Jay - can I ask you to try out following patch.

It does so as an argument to make so it is considered "command line" by make.

It comes from the command line in your case.

We hit the error because kbuild see the srctree and objtree points at the
same directory so outputmakefile will overwrite the kernel Makefile
if it is writeable.

Try adding a:
$(warning origin=$(origin O))
just above the lines with the check that fails.
I will try to fix this during the weeken - but Linux time is sparse these days.

I'm puzzled by your statement. Isn't the opposite true? When using
"command line", doesn't the following happen?
1. My makefile sets O=/foo
2. My makefile invokes your makefile with O=/foo
3. Your makefile ignores my O=/foo because it requires O=/foo to
originate from the command line
4. KBUILD_OUTPUT never gets set to /foo and we hit the error
OTOH, if I use "file":
1. My makefile sets O=/foo
2. My makefile invokes your makefile with O=/foo
3. Your makefile accepts my O=/foo because it requires O=/foo to
originate from another makefile
4. KBUILD_OUTPUT gets set to /foo and my make succeeds
This all used to work the last time I tried it, which was sometime
during 2.6.23 development, IIRC. Isn't the current structure going to
break just about all out-of-tree driver builds?

I just RTFM for GNU make, changing "command line" into "default" also
results in a succesful build.

Here's a clue: when I build with ARCH=x86, I get some warnings, but the
targz-pkg builds succesfully:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/git/linux-2.6 > make ARCH=x86 allnoconfig
[...]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/git/linux-2.6 > make ARCH=x86 targz-pkg

Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#1)

So it looks like the i386-x86_64 merge has something to do with it.

When you change "command line" to "file" you actually makes kbuild
ignore the O=... value which is why it succeeds.
The problem we solve with the error below is that in some case
the Makefile for the kernel were overwritten.
And I do not really understand why this does not happen in yours
and Erik's case.
Anyway - the right fix seems to detect that the two directories
are equal and then just ignore the O=... setting.
But I am lacking time atm to fix it - only sparsely working on
Linux the next few weeks.

Oh great, changing "command line" to "file" fixes my problem as well
(see http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/19/146 ). "make targz-pkg" works
flawless again.

When you change command line to file you actually makes kbuild ignore the O=... value which is why it succeeds. I'm puzzled by your statement. Isn't the opposite true? When using command line, doesn't the following happen? 1. My makefile sets O=/foo 2. My makefile invokes your makefile with O=/foo 3. Your makefile ignores my O=/foo because it requires O=/foo to originate from the command line 4. KBUILD_OUTPUT never gets set to /foo and we hit the error OTOH, if I use file: 1. My makefile sets O=/foo 2. My makefile invokes your makefile with O=/foo 3. Your makefile accepts my O=/foo because it requires O=/foo to originate from another makefile 4. KBUILD_OUTPUT gets set to /foo and my make succeeds This all used to work the last time I tried it, which was sometime during 2.6.23 development, IIRC. Isn't the current structure going to break just about all out-of-tree driver builds?

Allow (O=...) from file
Sam,
This piece of the top-level Makefile in current git causes an
out-of-tree driver Makefile to fail.
101 ifdef O
102 ifeq ("$(origin O)", "command line")
103 KBUILD_OUTPUT := $(O)
104 endif
105 endif
The out-of-tree driver Makefile contains an O=... directive that
(correctly) does _not_ specify the kernel source dir, and apparently
isn't overridden by the command line either. If in the above Makefile
snippet I change "command line" to "file", my out-of-tree make
succeeds. What do you think about allowing O= to come from a file in
addition to the command line?
Here are my attempts:
