Hm.. i can contribute a datapoint: if you make a "dirclean", without changing anything in the makeconfig or anything else (say, "make dirclean ; make ; make dirclean; make") you'll end up with two different kernel-hashes (after step 2 and 4) so there's (in addition to selected-kernel-features and such) some kind of build-date being taken into account for calculating the hash, which gets lost when doing dirclean, somewhere inside build_dir i suppose. cheers! gui > > Baptiste > > On Wed, Oct 01, 2014 at 03:43:20PM +0530, Nishant Sharma wrote: >> Hello members, >> >> Although, I am compiling and using custom OpenWRT images since 8 >> months now, but I am still confused with this particular >> behaviour.
