the Kbuild file is a Makefile substitute, take a look at this doc:
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt

the developers can drop either a Makefile or a Kbuild file into the tree

[CentOS] Re: missing from Centos51 src tree: ".../drivers/infiniband/hw/amso1100/Makefile"

2008-05-15 Thread snowcrash+centos 
checking further for the Makefile in the latest git repo,

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/roland/infiniband.git for-linus

, there's also no Makefile in the respective directory,

  ./for-linus/drivers/infiniband/hw/amso1100/

emailed the repo maintainer to ask,

  "is this an omission? if not, where can i get the Makefile?"

and received,

  Reply
  "There is a Kbuild file instead of a Makefile there."

i'm not yet sure what to do with that ... but, i presume that the
'make' process should *not* look for the Makefile? or, is there an
additonal step req'd?
