graph-depends: optimize execution speed
Until now, graph-depends was calling "make <pkg>-show-depends" individually for eack package, which was very slow. Now, it calls "make <pkg1>-show-depends <pkg2>-show-depends ... <pkgN>-show-depends" for all packages it knows, and then does that recursively. It reduces the number of make invocations to the deepest dependency chain in the current configuration, instead of having a number of make invocations equal to the number of enabled packages. For a configuration with xvkbd enabled (which brings a significant number of X.org dependencies) and a tar root filesystem, the time to execute graph-depends was: real 5m14.944s user 4m53.590s sys 0m14.069s After our optimizations, it is now: real 0m33.096s user 0m30.878s sys 0m1.472s Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
