HISQ source files are not listed as dependencies anywhere in the Makefile

[rbabich]

... I don't think (e.g., unitarize_force_quda.cu, unitarize_links_quda.cu, etc.). These should be included in a similar way to the fatlink code.

[gshi]

the hisq/gauge force code (.cu) are included in dslash_quda.cu. The fatlink has an fatlink interface file (.cpp) and that's why it uses the dependency base name in Makefile

[rbabich]

Right, but then they should be listed as dependencies for dslash_quda.o, no?

[gshi]

Good point. They should be listed.

[jpfoley]

I'm confused. Why should they be listed as dependencies? As it stands, a change in any of the hisq .cu files changes dslash_quda.cu.

[gshi]

The Makefile does not know that info. For example, right now if you change hisq_path_force_quda.cu and type "make", it does not recompile dslash_quda.cu. The goal to make it recompile dslash_quda.cu in such case automatically.

[jpfoley]

Oh yeah. I see your point, it's only after the preprocessor runs that dslash_quda.cu is updated. I wasn't thinking straight.
