While trying today to bisect a regression between 4.14.8 and 4.14.9 I was wondering about the unusual long build times of each step.
It turns out that a command like this ((make1.log attached):
sudo make -j1 2>&1 | tee ~/tmp/make1.log
builds everything twice. Does the line 2015:
UPD include/generated/autoksyms.h
points to the root cause ? Furthermore it seems that a change of just few files results into a full kernel rebuild (and that twice is explained above). Therefore I stopped bisecting for now. FWIW d120cd749e was one candidate of being a bad commit here at a ThinkPad T440s, but I'm usnsure about that result.
This is a stable hardened Gentoo Linux, GCC is:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
