Subject: why scripts/link-vmlinux.sh has a final build of init/
Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2018 12:22:14 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fb60e245-86f2-53c6-79d8-bd395ef011dd@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
Hi Masahiro-san,
As I remember, init/ is already built during recursive make, and I did
a clean build(make mrproper, make localmodconfig) with all plugins
included on x86_64 with following patch, the kernel can boot without any
obvious problem. So, I don't figure out why we need this final build?
