Is make utility that comes with IBM AIX compatible with gnu make

问题

I have to port a project from IBM AIX to Linux. It is using make that comes IBM AIX on AIX. My question is whether the syntax of IBM AIX make utility compatible with syntax of gnu make ? I mean can I use same makefiles with gnu make too without any changes?

Thanks

No, they're incompatible in general.

However, if the IBM AIX Makefile uses only features mandated by POSIX make, there might be a chance to get it working unmodified on Linux with GNU make. It is impossible to tell without seeing the actual Makefile.
