Hi, I have a general question about the U-Boot Makefiles. When I want to add a file to one of the sub-Makefiles (such as in drivers/net/Makefile or board/atmel/at91xxxx/Makefile), it seems I need to go through several steps in order for the new file to get compiled. I must be doing something wrong. I've been doing this everytime I add a new file to be compiled by a makefile:

make distclean make at91sam9rlek_config make at91sam9rlek_config make clean make -B

It seems that if I don't do all those steps, the new file is ignored and not compiled. I think its an issue with dependencies.

I have a similar problem when I add a new .h file to an existing .c file. It doesn't always cause the particular .c file to get recompiled. thanks in advance, Steve
