That is a story in arch/loongarch/boot/Makefile. I am talking about arch/loongarch/Makefile, which is included from the top Makefile. See this code. vmlinux.elf vmlinux.efi vmlinuz.efi: vmlinux $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot) $(bootvars-y) $(boot)/$@ Only the required dependency is - vmlinux.elf depends on vmlinux - vmlinuz.elf depends on vmlinux vmlinux.elf and vmlinuz.elf are independent of each other. In parallel building, GNU Make considers that vmlinux.elf and vmlinuz.elf can be built simultaneously. GNU Make spawns two processes to execute these simultaneously: $(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot) $(bootvars-y) $(boot)/vmlinux.elf $(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot) $(bootvars-y) $(boot)/vmlinuz.elf The former enters arch/loongarch/boot/Makefile to build vmlinux.elf. (A) The latter also enters arch/loongarch/boot/Makefile to build vmlinuz.elf, which depends on vmlinux.elf (B) (A) and (B) are independent processes, hence none of them know the other. I hope it is clearer. > Huacai > > > > > -- > > 2.40.1 > > > > >

Sorry, I'm not familiar with Makefile rules, so you are probably right, but should we do it like this (remove the direct dependency from vmlinuz.efi to vmlinux)? vmlinuz.efi: vmlinux.efi vmlinux.elf vmlinux.efi: vmlinux $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot) $(bootvars-y) $(boot)/$@ Huacai > > > > > > > > Huacai > > > > > > > > -- > > > 2.40.1 > > > > > > > > > > > -- > Best Regards > Masahiro Yamada

A common issue in Makefile is a race in parallel building. You need to be careful to prevent multiple threads from writing to the same file simultaneously. Commit 3939f3345050 ("ARM: 8418/1: add boot image dependencies to not generate invalid images") addressed such a bad scenario. A similar symptom occurs with the following command: $ make -j$(nproc) ARCH=loongarch vmlinux.efi vmlinuz.efi [ snip ] SORTTAB vmlinux OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.efi OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.efi PAD arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.bin GZIP arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinuz OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinuz.o LD arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinuz.efi.elf OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinuz.efi The log "OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.efi" is displayed twice. It indicates that two threads simultaneously enter arch/loongarch/boot/ and write to arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.efi. It occasionally leads to a build failure: $ make -j$(nproc) ARCH=loongarch vmlinux.efi vmlinuz.efi [ snip ] SORTTAB vmlinux OBJCOPY arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.efi PAD arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.bin truncate: Invalid number: ‘arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.bin’ make[2]: *** [drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile.zboot:13: arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.bin] Error 1 make[2]: *** Deleting file 'arch/loongarch/boot/vmlinux.bin' make[1]: *** [arch/loongarch/Makefile:146: vmlinuz.efi] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [Makefile:234: __sub-make] Error 2 vmlinuz.efi depends on vmlinux.efi, but such a dependency is not specified in arch/loongarch/Makefile.
