Commit Message

Masahiro Yamada Feb. 12, 2019, 3:44 a.m. UTC
It took me a while to understand what is going on in the nested
if-blocks.

Simplify it by removing unneeded code.

  - if_changed automatically adds 'set -e', so any failure in the
    series of commands makes it immediately fail as a whole.
    So, the outer if block is entirely redundant.

  - Since commit 9c2af1c7377a ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special
    target"), GNU Make automatically deletes the target on any failure
    in its recipe. The explicit 'rm -f $@' is redundant.

  - surrounding commands with ( ) will spawn a subshell to execute them
    in it, but it is rarely useful to do so.

Assuming that it still works as expected:

Acked-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>


You can test this by adding a statically initialized global function
pointer to any of the libstub source files that get built for ARM.

Thanks!

I tried that, and it failed as expected.

Great, thanks for double checking.

Are you taking this directly, or do you want me to take it via the EFI
tree? Either is fine with me
