Parallel builds of perf were failing for me on a 32p box, with: * new build flags or prefix util/pmu.l:7:23: error: pmu-bison.h: No such file or directory
... make: *** [util/pmu-flex.o] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... This can pretty quickly be seen by adding a sleep in front of the bison call in tools/perf/Makefile and running make -j4 on a smaller box: sleep 10; $(QUIET_BISON)$(BISON) -v util/pmu.y -d -o $(OUTPUT)util/pmu-bison.c Adding the following dependency fixes it for me: Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sand...@redhat.com> --- diff --git a/tools/perf/Makefile b/tools/perf/Makefile index bad726a..6c389d9 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Makefile +++ b/tools/perf/Makefile @@ -219,7 +219,7 @@ $(OUTPUT)util/parse-events-flex.c: util/parse-events.l $(OUTPUT)util/parse-events-bison.c: util/parse-events.y $(QUIET_BISON)$(BISON) -v util/parse-events.y -d $(PARSER_DEBUG_BISON) -o $(OUTPUT)util/parse-events-bison.c -$(OUTPUT)util/pmu-flex.c: util/pmu.l +$(OUTPUT)util/pmu-flex.c: util/pmu.l util/pmu-bison.c $(QUIET_FLEX)$(FLEX) --header-file=$(OUTPUT)util/pmu-flex.h -t util/pmu.l > $(OUTPUT)util/pmu-flex.c $(OUTPUT)util/pmu-bison.c: util/pmu.y -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
