2008-07-25kbuild: install all headers when arch is changedSam Ravnborg
We see some header files that are selected dependent on the actual architecture so force a reinstallation of all header files when the arch changes. This slows down "make headers_check_all" but then we better reflect reality. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2008-07-25kbuild: optimize headers_* targetsSam Ravnborg
Move the core functionality of headers_install and headers_check to two small perl scripts. The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and changed to operate on all files in a directory. So if one file is changed then all files in the directory is processed. perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this is pure text processing which perl is good at and especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to see changes / new checks implmented. The speed is ~300% faster on this box. And the output generated to the screen is now down to two lines per directory (one for install, one for check) so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build. The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
