[Xen-devel] Xen TODO list console.o being re-compiled

[Kip Macy <kip.macy@xxxxxxxxx>]

One of the trivial items on the xen TODO list is:
 "figure out why xen's console.c gets rebuilt every time"

The answer is pretty obvious from the top-level makefile:

 # drivers/char/console.o may contain static banner/compile info. Blow it away.
delete-unfresh-files:
        rm -f include/xen/banner.h include/xen/compile.h drivers/char/console.o
        $(MAKE) -C arch/$(TARGET_ARCH) delete-unfresh-files

where delete-unfresh-files is a dependency for $(TARGET):

$(TARGET): delete-unfresh-files
