Actually I thought about doing that instead of the configure change. It makes sense to me. > Then you add to Makefile: > > CONFIG_SOFTMMU := $(if $(filter %-softmmu,$(TARGET_DIRS)),y) > CONFIG_USER_ONLY := $(if $(filter %-user,$(TARGET_DIRS)),y) > +CONFIG_XEN := $(CONFIG_XEN_BACKEND) > CONFIG_ALL=y > -include config-all-devices.mak > -include config-all-disas.mak > > The Makefile change ensures that they are built before descending in the > target-specific directories. But I don't understand this. Please correct me if I am wrong, but this change looks like it would end up setting CONFIG_XEN every time that CONFIG_XEN_BACKEND is set. Without the configure change at the top, it would end up setting CONFIG_XEN whenever the host supports Xen, even for non-x86 and non-ARM targets.
