All defined CONFIG macros are included in include/autoconf.mk (and include/spl-autoconf.mk, include/tpl-autoconf.mk for SPL, TPL, respectively) If CONFIG_FOO is defined in your config header, CONFIG_FOO=y will apear in include/autoconf.mk Otherwise, it does not appear in include/autoconf.mk. As a result, obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o becomes obj-y += foo.o (if CONFIG_FOO is defined) or obj- += foo.o (if CONFIG_FOO is not defined) Kbuild checks $(obj-) as well as $(obj-y). Let me explain shortly how Kbuild works. For example, assume we have a Makefile like this obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o obj-$(CONFIG_BAR) += bar.o [1] Let's say CONFIG_FOO is set, but CONFIG_BAR isn't. In this case, $(obj-y) is foo.o $(obj-) is bar.o Then Kbuild builds only foo.o and links it into built-in.o [2] Next, let's say neither CONFIG_FOO nor CONFIG_BAR is set. In this case, $(obj-y) is empty. $(obj-) is foo.o bar.o Kbuild creates empty built-in.o if $(obj-y) is empty but $(obj-) is not empty. [3] Last, let's say Makefile does not have obj-$(...) lines. In this case, $(obj-y) is empty $(obj-) is empty too. Kbuild does not create built-in.o when both $(obj-y) and $(obj-) are empty. This is the case of tools/Makefile or example/standalone/Makefile. Is this clearer now? Best Regards Masahiro Yamada ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot

Hello Tom, (ccing Simon and Stephan) Tom, Please apply this along with the Kbuild series.

But the device tree of venice2 board is still remaining in board/nvidia/dts/. This is the cause of the build error. (Commit 5ab502cb89 had been posted before venice2 board support was merged. So there happened an unvisible conflict.) Actually I did not expect dts series was applied so soon because Simon and I was still discussing that series. And I guess Simon is not happy about Commit 5ab502cb89. Anyway, we need to do something with venice2's build error immediately. I think we have two options. [1] Move also venice2 device tree to arch/arm/dts directory. I have posted a patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/322082/ [2] revert the following commits in this order 3284c8b8ca (dts: generate multiple device tree blobs) 5ab502cb89 (dts: move device tree sources to arch/$(ARCH)/dts/) If we like to gather all device trees to arch/$(ARCH)/dts, the choice will be [1]. On the other hand, if we like to put *.dtsi to arch/$(ARCH)/dts whilst *.dts to board/$(VENDOR)/dts, the choice will be [2].

Hello Stephen, Adding something to obj-, which presumably isn't used at all, seems very odd. Why do we even need arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra124/Makefile ? I assume we need the config.mk because we can't stick CONFIG_ARCH_DEVICE_TREE into the config header? At least with the current build system, if I delete it, the build fails: + make BUILD_DIR=/home/swarren/shared/git_wa/tegra-uboot-flasher/_build/venice2/u-boot -s -j9 /home/swarren/shared/git_wa/tegra-uboot-flasher/u-boot/scripts/Makefile.build:11: Makefile: No such file or directory make[1]: *** No rule to make target `Makefile'.

(This is the same as before Kbuild.) Venice2 board specify SoC name, tegra124 in boards.cfg. If $(SOC) is not empty, the build system will descend into the SoC directory, and Makefile always must be there. I understand the special situation for Tegra, which has a different CPU for SPL. I guess you want to build under arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra124/ for SPL, whereas there is nothing to build under arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra124/.
