Currently the clean target when using O= isn't cleaning the feature detect output. This is because O= and OUTPUT= are set to canonical paths. For example in tools/perf/Makefile: FULL_O := $(shell cd $(PWD); readlink -f $(O) || echo $(O)) This means that OUTPUT ends in a / and most usages prepend it to a file without adding an extra /. This line that was changed adds an extra / before the 'feature' folder but not to the end, resulting in a clean command like this: rm -f /tmp/build//featuretest-all.bin ... After the change the clean command looks like this: rm -f /tmp/build/feature/test-all.bin ...

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. 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.
