This looks more complicated than necessary, and therefore less readable. What's wrong with: KBSS_SZ := $(shell echo $$(($$($(CROSS_COMPILE)nm $(obj)/../../../../vmlinux | \ sed -n -e 's/^\([^ ]*\) B __bss_start$$/-0x\1/p' \ -e 's/^\([^ ]*\) B __bss_stop$$/+0x\1/p') )) The sed command produces output such as: -0xc0955e58 +0xc10b0f9c which the shell is then able to evaluate and produce a decimal number. This seems to work fine with both bash and dash. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line in suburbia: sync at 8.8Mbps down 630kbps up According to speedtest.net: 8.21Mbps down 510kbps up
