Hi Everybody,
First of all, I'm new to Makefiles, so the following might be all wrong :-)
The makefile contains
"depmod -ae $(KERNEL_VERSION)"
My "man depmod" says:
-a --all Probe all modules.
This option is enabled by default,
if no file names are given in command-line.
-e --errsyms When combined with the -F option, [...]
So one could leave out the -e option, and if all depmod versions behave the
same here also the -a option. Right?
Is it needed to manually run depmod anyway if using a recent kernels
modules_install?
Same thing above where it says
cd $(KERNEL_DIR) && MAKE -C $(KERNEL_DIR)
Why go to KERNEL_DIR twice?
The SUBDIRS variable is used. In the Makefile of kernel version 2.6.25 it says
that it would be old syntax - i don't know how old and wether it is still
needed to support previous kernel versions, though.
Sincerely,
Daniel
