Yeah I think you're right, I misunderstood the boot wrapper. That patch works for me - it causes the full path to be used. Thanks heaps!

I don't get why -j makes a difference, but that does explain why we haven't seen it, none of my tests use -j 1 :) I don't think we actually want to copy serial.c, we just want to specify a dependency, does this work for you? cheers diff --git a/arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile index 39354365f54a..ed9883169190 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile +++ b/arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile @@ -197,7 +197,7 @@ $(addprefix $(obj)/,$(libfdt) $(libfdtheader)): $(obj)/%: $(srctree)/scripts/dtc $(obj)/zImage.coff.lds $(obj)/zImage.ps3.lds : $(obj)/%: $(srctree)/$(src)/%.S $(Q)cp $< $@ -$(obj)/serial.c: $(obj)/autoconf.h +$(srctree)/$(src)/serial.c: $(obj)/autoconf.h $(obj)/autoconf.h: $(obj)/%: $(objtree)/include/generated/% $(Q)cp $< $@
Re: [PATCH] powerpc/boot: Copy serial.c in Makefile
Right, so as both 0-day and snowpatch tell me, this patch is wrong. It turns out that this: > $(obj)/serial.c: $(obj)/autoconf.h > + $(Q)cp $< $@ is identical to: cp arch/powerpc/boot/autoconf.h arch/powerpc/boot/serial.c (Clearly my make mastery is inadequate.) Amusingly this which works for my 64e uImage but obviously not for anything that actually needs code from serial.c. Further analysis suggests that making with -j1 triggers the issue, but everything works with -j2 and above. That would make sense with the timeline of when I discovered the issue because I changed my build script to not build in parallel. Regards, Daniel

[PATCH] powerpc/boot: Copy serial.c in Makefile
A couple of weeks ago, I found my powerpc64e builds were broken
when building out-of-tree with make O=../destination:
BOOTCC arch/powerpc/boot/serial.o
powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc: error: arch/powerpc/boot/serial.c: No such file or
directory
powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc: fatal error: no input files
This is because 5e9dcb6188a4 ("powerpc/boot: Expose Kconfig symbols
to wrapper") adds a more specific rule for serial.c which doesn't
include a copy command. Add it.
