Hi, I''m making several changes in the underlying Linux source. To rebuild, I do a make distclean;make build;make install; This takes a lot of time as everything is built from scratch even for minor changes. Is there a way to build incrementally if one makes incremental changes in the linux source directory.

It worked in practice as well. Thanks!
