linux system: redhat 9 cross compiler: arm-elf-gcc 2.95.3 bootloader: u-boot 1.1.6 when compliing,the wrong message is below:

[root@zheng u-boot-1.1.6]# make all for dir in tools examples post post/cpu ; do make -C $dir _depend ; done make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/tools' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `_depend'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/tools' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/examples' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `_depend'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/examples' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/post' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `_depend'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/post' make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/post/cpu' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `_depend'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/post/cpu' make -C tools all make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/tools' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6/include/configs/mysbc405.h', needed by `envcrc.o'.

The error is probably not related to the '_depend' messages. Look at the last two lines. It seems like you're missing the mysbc405.h file.

I think you might be missing a header file. The _depend target is not the problem here: it seems that you didn't tell make how to build mysbc405.h, which it needs to make envcrc.o.

depend' messages. Look at

=D2=FE=B2=D8=B1=BB=D2=FD=D3=C3=CE=C4=D7=D6 -- =CF=D4=CA=BE=D2=FD=D3=C3=B5= =C4=CE=C4=D7=D6 -

You need to tell make not to try to make envcrc.o either --- it's trying to make envcrc.o (by compiling envcrc.c, probably) but it knows that it needs mysbc405.h to do that.

Somewhere in the makefiles there is probably a variable which lists objects that need to be built.

From /home/zheng/workstation/u-boot-1.1.6

do find . -type f | xargs grep envcrc

This should list all files that contain "envcrc"
