Users of if_changed could easily feel invited to use it to divide a recipe into parts like: a: prereq FORCE $(call if_changed,do_a) $(call if_changed,do_b) But this is problematic, because if_changed should not be used more than once per target: in the above example, if_changed stores the command-line of the given command in .a.cmd and when a is up-to-date with respect to prereq, the file .a.cmd contains the command-line for the last command executed, i.e. do_b. When the recipe is then executed again, without any change of prerequisites, the command-line check for do_a will fail, do_a will be executed and stored in .a.cmd. The next check, however, will still see the old content (the file isn't re-read) and if_changed will skip do_b, because the command-line test will not recognize a change. On the next execution of the recipe the roles will flip: do_a is OK but do_b not and it will be executed. And so on...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
