Or I might be missing something here. Sorry, I should have explained it more exactly. What I wanted you to refer is Wolfgang's comment in that thread.

And then we chose a new make target "cross_tools" rather than a new option "CROSS_BUILD_TOOLS=1". That is similar to what is happening here. I wanted to show retionale why a make target "tools-only" is better than "HOST_TOOLS_ONLY=yes". > > Doesn't work for me: > ======== > $ make tools-only > HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep > HOSTCC tools/aisimage.o > HOSTCC tools/crc32.o > HOSTCC tools/default_image.o > HOSTCC tools/dumpimage.o > In file included from include/version.h:11:0, > from tools/dumpimage.c:11: > include/timestamp.h:11:47: fatal error: > generated/timestamp_autogenerated.h: No such file or directory > #include "generated/timestamp_autogenerated.h" > ^ > compilation terminated. > make[1]: *** [tools/dumpimage.o] Error 1 > make: *** [tools-only] Error 2 > ======== Oops - My bad. I was disabling timestamp. Could you fix like this? tools-only: scripts_basic $(version_h) $(timestamp_h) $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=tools It worked for me. $ make tools-only HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep CHK include/config/uboot.release UPD include/config/uboot.release CHK include/generated/version_autogenerated.h UPD include/generated/version_autogenerated.h CHK include/generated/timestamp_autogenerated.h UPD include/generated/timestamp_autogenerated.h HOSTCC tools/aisimage.o HOSTCC tools/crc32.o HOSTCC tools/default_image.o HOSTCC tools/dumpimage.o HOSTCC tools/fdt.o HOSTCC tools/fdt_ro.o HOSTCC tools/fdt_rw.o HOSTCC tools/fdt_strerror.o HOSTCC tools/fdt_wip.o HOSTCC tools/fit_image.o HOSTCC tools/image-fit.o HOSTCC tools/image-host.o HOSTCC tools/image.o HOSTCC tools/imagetool.o HOSTCC tools/imximage.o HOSTCC tools/kwbimage.o HOSTCC tools/md5.o HOSTCC tools/mkenvimage.o HOSTCC tools/mkimage.o HOSTCC tools/mxsimage.o HOSTCC tools/omapimage.o HOSTCC tools/os_support.o HOSTCC tools/pblimage.o HOSTCC tools/sha1.o HOSTCC tools/ublimage.o HOSTLD tools/mkenvimage HOSTLD tools/dumpimage HOSTLD tools/mkimage HOSTCC tools/proftool Best Regards Masahiro Yamada _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
