Probably doing something stupid here. The whole kernel build process is triggered every single time when recompiling the image. I would expect only to rebuild files I have modified, or drivers I have added during menuconfig. I did set this in userpatches/config-example.conf: CLEAN_LEVEL="debs" But still getting: [ o.k. ] Checking git sources [ u-boot v2019.10 ] [ .... ] Cleaning .... [ 8 files ] [ o.k. ] Checking git sources [ linux-mainline orange-pi-5.3 ] [ .... ] Cleaning .... [ 206 files ] And then it compiles the whole thing all o
