The dsdt.asl is usually combined out of several files that are included

force DSDT rebuild each time we run make.

The build process that you describe is not in our documentation.

By which defconfig is $(src)/dsdt.asl consumed? Where does it come from?
Please, provide a reproducible example.

Would you be able to provide a documentation patch explaining how to use
a user provided dsdt.asl file?

Best regards

I agree that this patch is better than having the bug. But yes the
docs could really use some notes here, for the person who does come
along and clean up the dependency bug.

Regards,
Simon

The patch is neither applicable to origin/next nor to origin/master.

I only find a line

$(obj)/dsdt_generated.c:    $(src)/dsdt.asl

Best regards

Heinrich
