Edit File: remove-stale-files
#!/bin/sh set -e # When you move, remove or rename generated files, you probably also update # .gitignore and cleaning rules in the Makefile. This is the right thing # to do. However, people usually do 'git pull', 'git bisect', etc. without # running 'make clean'. Then, the stale generated files are left over, often # causing build issues. # # Also, 'git status' shows such stale build artifacts as untracked files. # What is worse, some people send a wrong patch to get them back to .gitignore # without checking the commit history. # # So, when you (re)move generated files, please move the cleaning rules from # the Makefile to this script. This is run before Kbuild starts building # anything, so people will not be annoyed by such garbage files. # # This script is not intended to grow endlessly. Rather, it is a temporary scrap # yard. Stale files stay in this file for a while (for some release cycles?), # then will be really dead and removed from the code base entirely. # These were previously generated source files. When you are building the kernel # with O=, make sure to remove the stale files in the output tree. Otherwise, # the build system wrongly compiles the stale ones. if [ -n "${building_out_of_srctree}" ]; then for f in fdt_rw.c fdt_ro.c fdt_wip.c fdt.c do rm -f arch/arm/boot/compressed/${f} done fi
