[PATCH] Makefile: add $(srctree) to dependency of compile_commands.json target
From: Alexandre Courbot
Date: Sat Aug 03 2024 - 08:52:27 EST
When trying to build the compile_commands.json target from an external
module's directory, the following error is displayed:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py',
needed by 'compile_commands.json'. Stop.
This appears to be because gen_compile_commands.py is looked up using
relative path, which doesn't exist from the module's source tree.
Prefixing the dependency with $(srctree) fixes the problem.
