I just have a few fairly trivial comments.

Lower case, and perhaps just done and skip? I don't suppose it would be easier to use an environment variable to hold a list of active builds and the bash word count feature to see how many there are... > + > build_target() { > target=$1 > + build_idx=$2 > + > + if [ "$BUILD_NBUILDS" -gt 1 ] ; then > + output_dir="${OUTPUT_PREFIX}/${target}" > + mkdir -p "${output_dir}" > + else > + output_dir="${OUTPUT_PREFIX}" > + fi > + > + export BUILD_DIR="${output_dir}" > > ${MAKE} distclean >/dev/null > ${MAKE} -s ${target}_config > > - ${MAKE} ${JOBS} all 2>&1 >${LOG_DIR}/$target.MAKELOG \ > - | tee ${LOG_DIR}/$target.ERR > + ${MAKE} ${JOBS} all \ > + >${LOG_DIR}/$target.MAKELOG 2> ${LOG_DIR}/$target.ERR > > # Check for 'make' errors > if [ ${PIPESTATUS[0]} -ne 0 ] ; then > RC=1 > fi > > - if [ -s ${LOG_DIR}/$target.ERR ] ; then > - ERR_CNT=$((ERR_CNT + 1)) > - ERR_LIST="${ERR_LIST} $target" > + if [ "$BUILD_NBUILDS" -gt 1 ] ; then > + ${MAKE} tidy > + > + if [ -s ${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR ] ; then > + touch ${OUTPUT_PREFIX}/ERR/${target} > + else > + rm ${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR > + fi > else > - rm ${LOG_DIR}/$target.ERR > + if [ -s ${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR ] ; then > + : $(( ERR_CNT += 1 )) > + ERR_LIST="${ERR_LIST} $target" > + else > + rm ${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR > + fi > fi > > - TOTAL_CNT=$((TOTAL_CNT + 1)) > - > - ${CROSS_COMPILE}size ${BUILD_DIR}/u-boot \ > + ${CROSS_COMPILE}size ${output_dir}/u-boot \ > | tee -a ${LOG_DIR}/$target.MAKELOG > + > + [ -e "${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR" ] && cat "${LOG_DIR}/${target}.ERR" > + > + touch "${DONE_PREFIX}${build_idx}" > } > build_targets() { > for t in "$@" ; do > @@ -523,7 +560,49 @@ build_targets() { > if [ -n "${list}" ] ; then > build_targets ${list} > else > - build_target ${t} > + : $((TOTAL_CNT += 1)) > + : $((CURRENT_COUNT += 1)) Should TOTAL_CNT and CURRENT_COUNT have more similar names...and perhaps lower case? > + rm -f "${DONE_PREFIX}${TOTAL_CNT}" > + rm -f "${SKIP_PREFIX}${TOTAL_CNT}" > + build_target ${t} ${TOTAL_CNT} & > + fi > + > + # We maintain a running count of all the builds we have done. > + # Each finished build will have a file called > ${DONE_PREFIX}${n}, > + # where n is the index of the build.
