From: Masahiro Yamada yamada.masahiro@socionext.com Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 12:56:06 +0900 Subject: kbuild: re-order the code to not parse unnecessary variables
From: Masahiro Yamada yamada.masahiro@socionext.com
commit 2c1f4f125159f10521944cea23e33a00fcf85ede upstream.
The top Makefile is divided into some sections such as mixed targets, config targets, build targets, etc.
When we build mixed targets, Kbuild just invokes submake to process them one by one. In this case, compiler-related variables like CC, KBUILD_CFLAGS, etc. are unneeded.
Check what kind of targets we are building first, and parse variables for building only when necessary.
