In general, I agree. But this would mean to reintroduce the multiply
duplicated Makefile bloat à la:
ifeq ($(CONFIG_HAS_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT),y)
BOARD_SIZE_CHECK= @ $(call size_check,$@,$(CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT))
else
BOARD_SIZE_CHECK =
endif
That's why after all I preferred my "test -z" solution. Is there maybe
a third way I am missing out on?
What do you think about giving size_check another argument, i.e.
call size_check,$@,$(CONFIG_HAS_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT),$(CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT)
Any other suggestions?
