Hi there all

Got a quick Q which will hopefully be quicker to ask than to do some reading in the code (yes I'm feeling a bit lazy today).

Does anyone (this is probably supposed to be addressed to Darren) know how the "linuxm.c" file is constructed when you run "make linux" ???? It isn't shipped in the source and it looks like it is made by taking input from IPF source and some of the Linux kernel headers and merging them in some way (hope I'm not way off course here lol). Any pointers as to in which Makefile all the instructions for this are so that I can look into patching some compile errors I get against the *VANILLA* source tree of the Linux kernel.

Many thanks,...

Hi Ross,

Not sure if this is right but in Linux/Makefile.kbuild there is

$(obj)/$(CPUDIR)/linuxm.c $(obj)//linuxm.c: $(TOP)/linux.c
       @if [ ! -h $@ ] ; then ln -s $< $@; fi

which looks like it is creating a ln from the ipfilter dir linux.c to linuxm.c
