I'll try to see if I can get rid of the warning somehow by playing with the build system a bit, but otherwise all green. Thanks, Claudio

Assuming we're just invoking "make libfdt" within the submodule, rather than "make" which will build dtc as well, then bison / flex shouldn't be needed.

The Makefile setup of dtc/libfdt is a bit weird (mostly to allow for Makefile fragments to be used in weird build environments). But for this case you might be better off still doing the recursion, but just changing the target from 'all' to 'libfdt'. > Let me know what you think about the idea in general, or if anybody knows what is wrong in the patch that makes patchew complain? > > Ciao, > > Claudio >

Hi David, that approach (recursing the same way, just building libfdt instead of all) is what I tried first, however as showcased above the libfdt target seems to cause more stuff to be built than necessary. Do you think we should change the external module to make the minimal build of libfdt work, instead of removing the recursion?

Ah, right. I had a look at this in dtc upstream. It looks like the problem is that we're always doing dependency generation for everything, including on the flex and bison generated files. > Do you think we should change the external module to make the > minimal build of libfdt work, instead of removing the recursion? It'd be nice to fix this upstream as well, which would also fix it here. Unfortunately, I'm not really sure how to do that.
