This doesn't happen for me. What git commit is your dtc submodule at, please? However, it's not the cause of the problem: > ar libfdt/libfdt.a libfdt/fdt.o libfdt/fdt_ro.o libfdt/fdt_wip.o > libfdt/fdt_sw.o libfdt/fdt_rw.o libfdt/fdt_strerror.o > ar: two different operation options specified ...which is that the top level makefile is passing ARFLAGS="" and so we don't specify any operation to ar at all. For me the submake is invoked with ARFLAGS ="rv" (which is Make's default for when ARFLAGS wasn't specified). QEMU's configure and makefile don't fiddle with ARFLAGS at all: are you passing some odd values in from your environment? thanks -- PMM
