Greg, Here is the directory structure. test-module | +-- test1 | | | +--test1.c | +--Makefile | +-- test2 | | | +---test2.c | +---Makefile | +-- system | + Makefile The toplevel makefile is "test-module/system/Makefile", and this will try to invoke "test1/Makefile", and "test2/Makefile", and build a single module. #system/Makefile : #------------------ KERNEL_SRC_DIR = /usr/src/linux-2.6 obj-m := ../test1/ obj-m += ../test2/ all : make -C $(KERNEL_SRC_DIR) M='pwd' modules #test1/Makefile : #---------------- obj-m += test1.o #test2/Makefile : #----------------- obj-m += test2.o This could build test1.ko, and test2.ko separately, but not into a single module. I tried the following in system/Makefile, and this works. obj-m := complete.o complete-objs := ../test1/test1.o ../test2/test2.o Then complete.ko is built properly, and I could install it successfully. But I want something like this. ---------------------------- #build a single module from .o files in the "obj" directory. obj-m := complete.o complete-objs := ../obj/test1.o ../obj/test2.o #Build all needed object files recursively in to a single "obj" directory obj-m += ../test1/ obj-m += ../test2/ ---------------------------- Thanks Suren On Mon, 2005-05-02 at 13:11, Greg KH wrote: > On Mon, May 02, 2005 at 01:11:19PM -0700, suren wrote: > > Hi, > > Did anybody tried to build a kernel loadable module on 2.6 kernel? > > > > I am trying to build a single module where the required C files spreads > > across multiple directories(with each subdirectory has a makefile).
