Subject: [PATCH master] kbuild: do not descend into images/ twice
Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2025 10:14:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250904081459.91984-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
By having a dependency on images/barebox-dt-2nd.img for the symlink we
may hit a race where the rule for barebox-dt-2nd.img inside in
images/Makefile is executed twice leading to build breakage.
Fix this by changing the dependency in the top-level Makefile to be on
images/, so make doesn't attempt descending twice into images/Makefile
in parallel.
Fixes: a1f893cc16e6 ("kbuild: collect compatibility symlink creation in symlink-y")
