If you are using 2.6.x kernel then you have to use the following make file to compile a single file. If you are using 2.4.x then it varies. Before compile your program copy the program to another directory and change the names accordingly in the following make file then compile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- # # Makefile for hello.c file in 2.6.x kernel only. # KDIR:=/lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build TRGT:=hello_world OBJS:=hello.o obj-m += $(TRGT).o $(TRGT)-objs := $(OBJS) default: $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules clean: $(RM) .*.cmd *.mod.c *.ko *.o -r .tmp* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- If you want a Makefile for 2.4.x kernel mail me.
