I do not think so. I pointed out the CC=clang check was not working. I see false positive errors from GCC commands. This patch does not use the benefit of Makefile. Makefile is used to describe the dependency between a target and its prerequisites, and how to update the target. Make compares the timestamps between the targets and prerequisites, then determines which targets need updating. See your code. clang-tidy: ifdef CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG $(PYTHON3) scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py $(PYTHON3) scripts/clang-tools/run-clang-tools.py clang-tidy compile_commands.json else $(error clang-tidy requires CC=clang) endif This always runs two commands sequentially. It rebuilds compile_commands.json even if nothing in the source tree has been changed. If you do this, there is no strong reason to use Make, and actually you can rewrite it in a shell script: clang_tidy () { if [ "$CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG = "y" ]; then $PYTHON3 scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py $PYTHON3 scripts/clang-tools/run-clang-tools.py clang-tidy compile_commands.json else echo "clang-tidy requires CC=clang" exit 1 fi } I changed the rules to Makefile-ish style. https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kbuild/list/?series=331893 I will wait for comments for the new version. -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada
