[PATCH v2] Makefile: add $(srctree) to dependency of compile_commands.json target
Posted by Alexandre Courbot 1 year, 4 months ago 
When trying to build the compile_commands.json target from an external
module's directory, the following error is displayed:

	make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py',
	needed by 'compile_commands.json'. Stop.

This is because gen_compile_commands.py was previously looked up using a
relative path to $(srctree), but commit b1992c3772e6 ("kbuild: use
$(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory") stopped
defining VPATH for external module builds.

Prefixing gen_compile_commands.py with $(srctree) fixes the problem.

Fixes: b1992c3772e6 ("kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory")

As I mentioned in v1, this issue only happens when using the kernel
directory built in a separate output directory (O=).

Unless you have a opposition, I will reword this sentence as follows:

When trying to build compile_commands.json for an external module
against the kernel built in a separate output directory, the following
error is displayed:
