Dear All, I am trying to debug the USB Mass Storage driver in the kernel space. I have added some my own printk statements in the storage driver and build the entire modules for building the USB modules only as I do not know the procedure for building the individual modules. In brief, I have followed the following steps. 1) Added some printk statements in the storage driver. 2) Build the entire kernel space modules with the following command. # make modules (in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.28) 3) Removed the existing usb_storage module from kernel space along with its dependents. 4) Copied the usb-storage.ko from /usr/src/linux-2.6.28/drivers/usb/storage/ directory to /lib/modules/2.6.28/kernel/drivers/usb/storage. 5) Reloading the usb_storage module along with its dependents. 6) I am able to see my own debug statements when I attach a USB drive. Here, I do not want to do the #2, because it takes lot of time as it builds the entire modules which are changed. This step itself takes lot of time in my above procedure. Could any one please suggest me a different step to build ONLY THE USB drivers which exists in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.28/drivers/usb/storage/ directory? Shall I write a Makefile for building the USB modules alone? Please suggest me and save my compilation time. Thanks in advance.
