Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: clean compressed initramfs image
Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2019 23:32:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190722063251.55541-1-gthelen@google.com> (raw)

Since commit 9e3596b0c653 ("kbuild: initramfs cleanup, set target from
Kconfig") "make clean" leaves behind compressed initramfs images.
Example:
  $ make defconfig
  $ sed -i 's|CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE=""|CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/tmp/ir.cpio"|' .config
  $ make olddefconfig
  $ make -s
  $ make -s clean
  $ git clean -ndxf | grep initramfs
  Would remove usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz

clean rules do not have CONFIG_* context so they do not know which
compression format was used.  Thus they don't know which files to
delete.

Tell clean to delete all possible compression formats.

Once patched usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz and friends are deleted by
"make clean".

Fixes: 9e3596b0c653 ("kbuild: initramfs cleanup, set target from Kconfig")
