If you want to compile the sum-module (source mirrored below), follow these steps:
Create the Makefile in your directory with the sum-module.c
obj-m := sum-module.o
KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD := $(shell pwd)
default:
$(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules
Now do a
make
... and the sum-module.ko is built.
If you get something like this
# make
make: Nothing to be done for `default'.
you need to install the kernel source and compile the kernel first (run "make" at least to the point until
all "HOSTCC scripts/" stuff is done - this will configure your kernel and allows external module compilation).
Make sure /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build points to your build directory (most likely /usr/src/linux...).
Another reason for the above error can be, that your browser converted the TAB before $(MAKE) to spaces.
Make sure there is a TAB before $(MAKE).
Install it with install.sh:
#!/bin/sh
install -m 644 sum-module.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/sum-module.ko
/sbin/depmod -a
(adjust the /lib/modules path according to your needs)
Now make a
# modprobe sum-module
Or if you don't want to install the module, do this:
# insmod ./sum-module.ko
..and if your system doesn't freeze you've done it right ;-)
For kernel 2.4, the Makefile would look like this:
TARGET := modulename
INCLUDE := -I/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include
CFLAGS := -O2 -Wall -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -DLINUX
CC := gcc
${TARGET}.o: ${TARGET}.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) ${INCLUDE} -c ${TARGET}.c
(not yet tested)
