[PATCH 5.0 020/246] libbpf: force fixdep compilation at the start of the build

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 04 2019 - 05:08:21 EST


5.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 8e2688876c7f7073d925e1f150e86b8ed3338f52 ]

libbpf targets don't explicitly depend on fixdep target, so when
we do 'make -j$(nproc)', there is a high probability, that some
objects will be built before fixdep binary is available.

Fix this by running sub-make; this makes sure that fixdep dependency
is properly accounted for.

For the same issue in perf, see commit abb26210a395 ("perf tools: Force
fixdep compilation at the start of the build").

Before:

$ rm -rf /tmp/bld; mkdir /tmp/bld; make -j$(nproc) O=/tmp/bld -C tools/lib/bpf/

... libelf: [ on ]
... bpf: [ on ]
