In my original patch I tweaked the src and obj variables to use spl as remote build directory. As a consequence I had to change the implicite make rules too. The regular way is: src = $(TOPDIR)/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.S obj = $(TOPDIR)/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.o (in-tree builds) obj = $(BUILDDIR)/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.o (out-of-tree builds) with spl as build directory: src = $(TOPDIR)/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.S obj = $(TOPDIR)/spl/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.o (in-tree builds) obj = $(BUILDDIR)/spl/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.o (out-of-tree builds) in the latter case I saw that $(src) got the value $(TOPDIR)/spl/arch/ARCH/cpu/CPU/start.S and the implicite make rules did not work anymore. I'am glad if this works without those changes. I'll try this for my boards too.
