The rules for generating the output register files look like: amd64.c : $(srcdir)/../regformats/i386/amd64.dat $(regdat_sh) $(SHELL) $(regdat_sh) $(srcdir)/../regformats/i386/amd64.dat amd64.c According to this rule, if regdat.sh is newer than amd64.c, then regdat.sh shall be invoked on amd64.dat. According to regdat.sh, if the script determines that the output file amd64.c has not changed, then it will not overwrite the existing output file. This means that a subsequent invocation of make will trigger the above rule again as regdat.sh will be perpetually newer than amd64.c. This then shows up in the make output like so: /bin/bash ./../regformats/regdat.sh ./../regformats/i386/amd64-linux.dat amd64-linux.c amd64-linux.c unchanged. /bin/bash ./../regformats/regdat.sh ./../regformats/i386/amd64-avx-linux.dat amd64-avx-linux.c amd64-avx-linux.c unchanged. ... To fix this pathological behavior, it suffices to have regdat.sh unconditionally rewrite the output register file. On my machine, which has a regdat.sh file that is newer than some of the input register files, this change speeds up every invocation of make under gdb/ by about 5 seconds. |
