[PATCH] kbuild: Run syncconfig with -s
From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Thu Aug 20 2020 - 02:35:34 EST
On every kernel build that runs --syncconfig, there's an output of the following line:
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
This is the only non-platform build message the kbuild system emits that isn't
prefixed by at least a space, or is a build warning.
Run it under -s - if there's any problem it will emit messages anyway.
With this change the following simple grep filter will show all build warnings
and errors of a kernel build:
make | grep -v '^ '
