On the compile command line, > KBUILD_MODNAME is not defined, but KBUILD_BASE_NAME is. scripts/Makefile.lib says # Note: It's possible that one object gets potentially linked into more # than one module. In that case KBUILD_MODNAME will be set to foo_bar, # where foo and bar are the name of the modules. but reality does not match this comment: modname_flags = $(if $(filter 1,$(words $(modname))),\ -D"KBUILD_MODNAME=KBUILD_STR($(call name-fix,$(modname)))") But I wonder why you need to link all the object files twice? Usually, drivers have a foo_common.ko and foo_{usb,pci,whatever}.ko that provide the pci/usb/whatever driver.
