Thank you for the critical information. > > why/what is it so difficult to add/adjust the toplevel makefile to do that? > It requires far more time and skill than simply providing the make command and variables that upstream has exposed as a long term stable interface for building the kernel module. Additionally, the requirements for inclusion were undocumented and not forthcoming in the initial suggestion NAK. Therefore, there is no answer to your question at this time, as it was never clear that one had to "add/adjust the toplevel makefile" to conform to an integrated kbuild build enviroment, because that is a future policy. I'll leave that to the first person who attempts to do this. Thanks, Kel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
