SubjectLinux 2.6 KBUILD Help Required.
Hello,

I have a one question.
If I have to add additional external flag on my external kernel module source during compilation with KBUILD.
lest say I have one kernel module file hello.c
and I want to add one flag -D testdebug.

suppose this is my makefile.

obj-m += hello.o
all:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules
clean:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean

where I can add this flag.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

Hello sam,

Thanks for your time.
Any way, we already had a lot discussion.
It just matter of interest nothing else.
Actually it is just a curiosity to know little bit
Internals of KBUILD and module versioning.
You can say, it is my bad habit when I start work on
something.
I want to understand it from base.
Unfortunately this time I didn’t get much information
from google.
Neither from kernel documentation.
I don’t have any issue on using KBUILD.

Sorry again.
Thanks for your suggestion and view.
