Subject: Re: [PATCH] tools/power: turbostat: Use $(CURDIR) instead of $(PWD) in Makefile
Date: Mon,  5 Jan 2015 21:37:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420490243-15375-1-git-send-email-whissi@whissi.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2779550.jOF2haXjUH@yow-masselst-d1>

[PATCH] tools/power: turbostat: Use $(CURDIR) instead of $(PWD) and
 add support for O= option in Makefil

Since commit ee0778a30153 ("tools/power: turbostat: make Makefile a bit
more capable") turbostat’s Makefile is using

  [...]
  BUILD_OUTPUT    := $(PWD)
  [...]

which obviously causes trouble when building "turbostat" with

  make -C /usr/src/linux/tools/power/x86/turbostat ARCH=x86 turbostat

because GNU make doesn’t update nor guarantee that $PWD is set.

This patch changes the Makefile to use $CURDIR instead, which GNU make
guarantees to set and update (i.e. when using "make –C ...") and also
adds support for the O= option (see "make help" in your root of your
kernel source tree for more details).

 I followed Mark's suggestion and also added support for the O= option.
 I took the logic from tools/power/cpupower/Makefile.

 ...i also hope this reply will work and doesn't break the tread ;)
