Subject: [PATCH 3/3] ci: build: shuffle goal and prerequisite ordering
Date: Mon,  1 Sep 2025 17:38:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250901153852.2554758-4-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250901153852.2554758-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

Now that the container has been newly updated to Debian Trixie, we have
GNU make v4.4.1 available. v4.4 introduced a new --shuffle option
that shuffles goal and prerequisite ordering to hopefully catch issues
around non-deterministic build order in parallel makefiles.

Let's enable this option for all our defconfig builds. When a build
fails, make will also print to stderr a shuffle=<integer> line.

The integer can be passed to --shuffle locally when trying to reproduce
the breakage.
