Hello,
I am using u-boot 2015.04 and have a mechanism implemented in the board-specific Makefile for our board, which uses xsltproc to generate header-files from xml input files - this part is working by now.
what is still not working is the removal of those generated files upon calling "make clean", and after some initial inspection I found out, that the board-specific directories are completely ignored when calling "make clean"!
- why is that the case, can't those directories not also be visited when
cleaning things up?
It works fine for me.
I built mx7dsabresd_defconfig with mainline U-boot and after that I see:
ls board/freescale/mx7dsabresd/ built-in.o imximage.cfg.cfgtmp MAINTAINERS mx7dsabresd.c mx7dsabresd.o imximage.cfg Kconfig Makefile mx7dsabresd.su
Then after a 'make clean'
ls board/freescale/mx7dsabresd/ imximage.cfg Kconfig MAINTAINERS Makefile mx7dsabresd.c
,which worked as expected.
In March of 2015, I was told that the board directories are not visited for "make clean". Quoting Mr. Masahiro Yamada
CLEAN_FILES is only available at the top-level Makefile.
Add CLEAN_FILES += board/my_board/test.img to the top-level Makefile, and it should work.
clean-files += test.img clean-files := test.img
These are correct in sub-directory Makefiles in general, but unfortunately, "make clean" does not descend into board/ directory for some reason.
So, they do not work in board/*/Makefile
This was quite a while ago, so changes may have been made for more recent releases. But at one time (v2014.07), "make clean" did not visit board directories.
