Let me try to clarify more. My intention is not build or port kernel driver without using KBUILD. I know about driver porting and Writing makefile using KBUILD. I don't have any issue about that. I just want understand the whole process for clearity thats it. unfortunately I didn't get any answer from linux-doc and linux-admin about this issue. Let me try to understand KBUILD internal architecture more by self. Any Way. Thanks for your view.
