<one more time in plain text> Yes, of course. It contains only one line: obj-$(CONFIG_MY_PROCLISTOUTPUT) += proclistoutput.o and works with Kconfig config MY_PROCLISTOUTPUT tristate "Display a list of processes" default y ---help--- This module prints a list of processes But I'm sure that the reason is not in my file, because: - If I put my code in a folder /drivers (and include my Makefile and Kconfig) then everything works perfectly (I can build kernel object and I can built-in my code to the kernel) - If I put my code in a folder /samples (and include my Makefile and Kconfig) then build-in the code I can't, but with .ko it works fine... I suppose that the reason in the kernel Makefile. The root Makefile contains this code (http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Makefile#L914) ifdef CONFIG_SAMPLES $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=samples endif where $(Q) = @ $(build) = -f scripts/Makefile.build obj and further I lose understanding of the events... 10.04.2012, 08:26, "Vladimir Murzin" <murzin.v@xxxxxxxxx>: > Hi Semen > > Could you share a Makefile for your module? > > Best wishes, > Vladimir Murzin > > -----Original Message----- > From: Martynov Semen <semen-martynov@xxxxxxxxx> > Sender: kernelnewbies-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Mon, 09 Apr 2012 23:56:15 > To: kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: No subject > > Good afternoon, > > I would like to understand, why I can't make the built-in object, when my code is in a folder /samples... > > I have my module-code and if I put it in a folder /samples, I can receive only loadable module (.ko) but if I want to receive the built-in object - it turns out nothing (.о-file is created, but my code doesn't get in a kernel).
