Subject: [PATCH 3/4] nsdeps: remove stale .ns_deps files before generating new ones
Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2019 16:14:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191028151427.31612-3-jeyu@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191028151427.31612-1-jeyu@kernel.org>

When adding or removing namespaces, calling `make` does not necessarily
remove existing stale .ns_deps files. That is, one could remove a
namespace, call make, and while modpost writes the correct, new .ns_deps
files, stale ones are not removed from the source tree, thus producing
incorrect results when running `make nsdeps`, i.e., inserting
MODULE_IMPORT_NS() statements for namespaces that have been removed.
Clean up old .ns_deps files before generating new ones with modpost.
