The patch titled
kbuild: build a single module using 'make dir/module.ko'
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
kbuild-build-a-single-module-using-make-dir-moduleko.patch
Patches currently in -mm which might be from [EMAIL PROTECTED] are
kbuild-build-a-single-module-using-make-dir-moduleko.patch
From: Sam Ravnborg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Using the syntax:
make dir/module.ko
kbuild now allows one to build a module including the final link stage.
This is usefull when one only wants to compile a single module and thus do
not have to wait until a full kernel has finished compiling. Tested by:
