Hello.
Seems no more feedback for this regression report. OK, the Linux kernel build system is too complicated. So, I have come back with a much simpler test-case. Here, the test-case is only 2 makefiles, less than 50 lines. Please take a look this problem. As I already reported, the git-bisect points to commit 2b8e3bb23f96c2458818f011593557d3353dade3 Author: Paul Smith <psm...@gnu.org> Date: Mon Jan 2 14:08:54 2017 -0500 Clean up close-on-exec, particularly with jobserver pipes. I attached the test case below. For convenience, this test-case is available from my GitHub repository as well: https://github.com/masahir0y/make-testcase [Test Case] ----------------------(Makefile)------------------------------- # If MAKECMDGOALS contains two or more targets, handle them one by one. ifneq ($(word 2,$(MAKECMDGOALS)),) PHONY += $(MAKECMDGOALS) __build_one_by_one $(filter-out __build_one_by_one, $(MAKECMDGOALS)): __build_one_by_one @: __build_one_by_one: set -e; \ for i in $(MAKECMDGOALS); do \ $(MAKE) -f Makefile $$i; \ done else ifeq ($(MAKECMDGOALS),config) config: FORCE touch .config else include auto.conf PHONY += all all: echo all auto.conf: .config $(MAKE) -f Makefile.config syncconfig endif endif PHONY += FORCE FORCE: .PHONY: $(PHONY) ----------------------(Makefile END)--------------------------- ----------------------(Makefile.config)--------------------------- syncconfig: touch auto.conf ----------------------(Makefile.config END)--------------------------- [How to run the test case?] $ make -j8 config all Thanks. 2018-08-09 11:47 GMT+09:00 Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masah...@socionext.com>: > Hello. > > > > 2018-07-12 20:55 GMT+09:00 Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masah...@socionext.com>: >> 2018-07-12 20:26 GMT+09:00 Paul Smith <psm...@gnu.org>: >>> On Thu, 2018-07-12 at 14:51 +0900, Masahiro Yamada wrote: >>>> I attached information that might be helpful. >>>> Please take it FWIW. >>> >>> The content you quote looks correct to me so if that's what's really in >>> the makefiles then the problem is a deeper mystery. >>> >>> Can you clarify what version of GNU make you're using and how you >>> obtained it?
