Folks Is any erudite enough in Makefile syntax to help with a needed Conditional. With SUBLEVEL being the third component of the Kernel-Version which can be read out with SUBLEVEL := $(shell uname -r | cut -d. -f3 | cut -d. -f1 | cut -d- -f1) with cogency in the 22 24+ range a Makefile conditional is needed to use EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DKMARTIAN_STAMP=20061202 for SUBLEVEL < 24 , and for greater or equal 24 EXTRA_CPPFLAGS += -DKMARTIAN_STAMP=20061202 Otherwise we would need separate martian packages for 2.6.24 and later kernels versus 2.6.22 and earlier Sadly I'm not adequately knowledgeable in Makefile syntax. Incidentally, in the kmodule/Makefile , the role of this section: ifdef KERNEL_DIR KBUILD_DIR = $(KERNEL_DIR) else KBUILD_DIR = /lib/modules/$(KRELEASE)/build endif is to enable compiling for other kernels, other than the current boot kernel. The syntax is like: $ make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-headers-SomeKernelVersion that is KERNEL_DIR is the path to the linux-headers for the desired kernel version. This saves rebooting when one wants to test compiling for several different linux-headers IIf the command is only: $ make then there is used the default /lib/modules/kernel-version-bootup/build Thus I will retain this section in the update.
