Forcing configure step with GNU autotools

I am running into an issue with autotools and thought somebody here could help.

I need to have make call ./configure again after executing a particular make target. Here's my scenario: I have to call make all_defconfig, and as this changes a .config file in my directory which needs to be parsed by the configure script, I need to make sure that if make is called afterwards, the configure script is run again. Is there a way to force the configure step without ugly hacks?

Regards, Sebastien

Sure. Just call configure at the end of make all_defconfig:

all_defconfig: ...
        ...
        $(SHELL) ./config.status --recheck

I don't know enough about your build to guarantee that this won't loop... but I'm assuming it won't.
