Writing makefiles for headers outside 'usr/include'

    So
      the initial problem I'm having is that wanting to use headers and
      their libs like module.h and init.d and pci.h for instance can't be used
      by simply going #include
        <pci.h> because
      if you check the actual pci.h (40 lines or so) file
      you will find that its allot shorter then the usual dev pci.h so
      needless to say you can't use all the functions. So now I have to
      use makefiles to point to other directories.
    I've
      been trying to create makefiles but at the moment the errors just
      rack up so much that I really don't know what part of the process
      is at fault. Is it the C or the headers or the wrong libraries?
      I'm kind of clueless to where the libraries might even be.
    Could
      someone please help me write a makefile for Linux headers and
      their libraries that is not in the usual /usr/include directory? The source
      files that I want to use will be in usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0.32-generic/include.
      Also if they are in the makefile how will I include them in the
      source?
    I've
      been learning a lot of things in parallel and I think the curve is
      starting to get to me. :/
