3 | modules.order | |
4 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
5 | This file records the order in which modules appear in Makefiles. This | |
6 | is used by modprobe to deterministically resolve aliases that match | |
7 | multiple modules. | |
8 | ||
9 | modules.builtin | |
10 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
11 | This file lists all modules that are built into the kernel. This is used | |
12 | by modprobe to not fail when trying to load something builtin. | |

acc08b51 SR |
15 | Environment variables |
16 | ||
17 | KCPPFLAGS | |
18 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
19 | Additional options to pass when preprocessing. The preprocessing options | |
df291fa9 | 20 | will be used in all cases where kbuild does preprocessing including |
acc08b51 SR |
21 | building C files and assembler files. |
22 | ||
23 | KAFLAGS | |
24 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
6588169d SR |
25 | Additional options to the assembler (for built-in and modules). |
26 | ||
27 | AFLAGS_MODULE | |
28 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
29 | Addtional module specific options to use for $(AS). | |
acc08b51 SR |
30 | |
31 | KCFLAGS | |
32 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
6588169d SR |
33 | Additional options to the C compiler (for built-in and modules). |
34 | ||
35 | CFLAGS_MODULE | |
36 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
37 | Addtional module specific options to use for $(CC). | |
38 | ||
39 | LDFLAGS_MODULE | |
40 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
41 | Additional options used for $(LD) when linking modules. | |

42 | |
43 | KBUILD_VERBOSE | |
44 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 | 45 | Set the kbuild verbosity. Can be assigned same values as "V=...". |
acc08b51 SR |
46 | See make help for the full list. |
47 | Setting "V=..." takes precedence over KBUILD_VERBOSE. | |
48 | ||
49 | KBUILD_EXTMOD | |
50 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
51 | Set the directory to look for the kernel source when building external | |
52 | modules. | |
53 | The directory can be specified in several ways: | |
54 | 1) Use "M=..." on the command line | |
55 | 2) Environmnet variable KBUILD_EXTMOD | |
56 | 3) Environmnet variable SUBDIRS | |
57 | The possibilities are listed in the order they take precedence. | |
58 | Using "M=..." will always override the others. | |
59 | ||
60 | KBUILD_OUTPUT | |
61 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
62 | Specify the output directory when building the kernel. | |
63 | The output directory can also be specificed using "O=...". | |
df291fa9 | 64 | Setting "O=..." takes precedence over KBUILD_OUTPUT. |
acc08b51 SR |
65 | |
66 | ARCH | |
67 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
68 | Set ARCH to the architecture to be built. | |
69 | In most cases the name of the architecture is the same as the | |
70 | directory name found in the arch/ directory. | |
df291fa9 | 71 | But some architectures such as x86 and sparc have aliases. |
acc08b51 SR |
72 | x86: i386 for 32 bit, x86_64 for 64 bit |
73 | sparc: sparc for 32 bit, sparc64 for 64 bit | |
74 | ||
75 | CROSS_COMPILE | |
76 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
77 | Specify an optional fixed part of the binutils filename. | |
78 | CROSS_COMPILE can be a part of the filename or the full path. | |
79 | ||
e8d400a9 | 80 | CROSS_COMPILE is also used for ccache in some setups. |
acc08b51 SR |
81 | |
82 | CF | |
83 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
84 | Additional options for sparse. | |
85 | CF is often used on the command-line like this: | |
86 | ||
87 | make CF=-Wbitwise C=2 | |
88 | ||
89 | INSTALL_PATH | |
90 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
91 | INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map | |
df291fa9 | 92 | images. Default is /boot, but you can set it to other values. |
acc08b51 | 93 | |
caa27b66 SR |
94 | INSTALLKERNEL |
95 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
96 | Install script called when using "make install". | |
97 | The default name is "installkernel". | |
98 | ||
99 | The script will be called with the following arguments: | |
100 | $1 - kernel version | |
101 | $2 - kernel image file | |
102 | $3 - kernel map file | |
103 | $4 - default install path (use root directory if blank) | |
104 | ||
105 | The implmentation of "make install" is architecture specific | |
106 | and it may differ from the above. | |
107 | ||
108 | INSTALLKERNEL is provided to enable the possibility to | |
109 | specify a custom installer when cross compiling a kernel. | |
acc08b51 SR |
110 | |
111 | MODLIB | |
112 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
113 | Specify where to install modules. | |
114 | The default value is: | |
115 | ||
116 | $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE) | |
117 | ||
118 | The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | |
119 | ||
120 | INSTALL_MOD_PATH | |
121 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
122 | INSTALL_MOD_PATH specifies a prefix to MODLIB for module directory | |
123 | relocations required by build roots. This is not defined in the | |
124 | makefile but the argument can be passed to make if needed. | |
125 | ||
126 | INSTALL_MOD_STRIP | |
127 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
128 | INSTALL_MOD_STRIP, if defined, will cause modules to be | |
129 | stripped after they are installed. If INSTALL_MOD_STRIP is '1', then | |
130 | the default option --strip-debug will be used. Otherwise, | |
131 | INSTALL_MOD_STRIP will used as the options to the strip command. | |
132 | ||
133 | INSTALL_FW_PATH | |
134 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 | 135 | INSTALL_FW_PATH specifies where to install the firmware blobs. |
acc08b51 SR |
136 | The default value is: |
137 | ||
138 | $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/firmware | |
139 | ||
140 | The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | |
141 | ||
142 | INSTALL_HDR_PATH | |
143 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 | 144 | INSTALL_HDR_PATH specifies where to install user space headers when |
acc08b51 SR |
145 | executing "make headers_*". |
146 | The default value is: | |
147 | ||
148 | $(objtree)/usr | |
149 | ||
150 | $(objtree) is the directory where output files are saved. | |
151 | The output directory is often set using "O=..." on the commandline. | |
152 | ||
153 | The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | |
154 | ||
155 | KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN | |
156 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 RD |
157 | KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN can be set to avoid errors in case of undefined |
158 | symbols in the final module linking stage. It changes such errors | |
159 | into warnings. | |
acc08b51 | 160 | |
df291fa9 | 161 | KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL |
acc08b51 SR |
162 | -------------------------------------------------- |
163 | KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL can be set to skip the final link of modules. | |
df291fa9 | 164 | This is solely useful to speed up test compiles. |
acc08b51 SR |
165 | |
166 | KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS | |
167 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 | 168 | For modules that use symbols from other modules. |
acc08b51 | 169 | See more details in modules.txt. |

171 | ALLSOURCE_ARCHS | |
172 | -------------------------------------------------- | |
df291fa9 RD |
173 | For tags/TAGS/cscope targets, you can specify more than one arch |
174 | to be included in the databases, separated by blank space. E.g.: | |
4f628248 JS |
175 | |
176 | $ make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS="x86 mips arm" tags | |
bc75cc6b JK |
177 | |
178 | To get all available archs you can also specify all. E.g.: | |
179 | ||
180 | $ make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS=all tags |
