Since GNU Make 4.2, $(file ...) supports the read operater '<', which
is useful to read a file without forking any process. No warning is
shown even if the input file is missing.

For older Make versions, it falls back to the cat command.

The added ifeq will break when GNU Make 4.10 or 10.0 is released.
It will take a long time if the current release pace continues.

Great stuff. Used it in my upcoming series to simplify things, works
as expected.

sed-syms = $(subst $(space),\|,$(foreach file,$(sym-files-y),$(call read-file,$(file))))

The only thing that came to my mind while I was implementing the
oneliner above: maybe add ability to read multiple files? For now,
I used a foreach, could it be somehow incorporated into read-file
already?

Besides that:

Oh, nevermind. This one also works:

sed-syms = $(subst $(space),\|,$(call read-file,$(sym-files-y)))

So I believe read-file works for an arbitrary number of files.

Really?


In my understanding, $(call read-file, foo bar) reads a single file "foo bar".
(a space in the file name).

yes, except for make < 4.2, due to:

read-file = $(shell cat $1 2>/dev/null)

$ make --version
GNU Make 4.3
Built for x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu

But breh, I forgot to port test-ge, so Kbuild was always calling
cat :D :clownface:
Correct, current implementation (as of v3) reads only single file.
Not sure whether read-file should handle multiple at a time.

Thanks,
