But what's the system level use case for this capability ? Honestly, it just
looks complicated .. and I'm not seeing exactly multiple kernels are being
built in parallel in a single build. We've been forcing everything
explicitly
to be in a single, shared location .. and I see that this is both
complicating
and a possible source of errors.
It's probably that I'm just misunderstanding the point of the change.
If I had to guess, you are building recovery, or kexec/kdump kernels along
side the main kernel ?
Cheers,
Bruce
