From 54b880caf15034644b564e378abf67b7f9eaf4dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 23:42:23 +0100 Subject: kbuild, x86: Track generated headers with generated-y Track generated header files which aren't already in genhdr-y, alongside generic-y wrappers in the */include/generated/[uapi/]asm/ directories. Currently only x86 generates extra headers in these directories, for the purposes of enumerating system calls for different ABIs, and xen hypercalls. This will allow the asm-generic wrapper handling code to remove stale wrappers when files are removed from generic-y, without also removing these headers which are generated separately.
