Getting the name of the makefile from the makefile

Question

How to get the name of the makefile in the makefile?

Thanks.

Note:

I would need that because I would like my makefile to call itself, but the makefile is not called Makefile, so I'd like to write something like this:

target:     ($MAKE) -f ($MAKEFILENAME) other_target 

Answer 1

location = $(CURDIR)/$(word $(words $(MAKEFILE_LIST)),$(MAKEFILE_LIST)) WHERE_ART_THOU := $(location) $(warning $(WHERE_ART_THOU)) 

I also believe this is GNU make-specific, but I'm not too sure.
