1 Pre-compiled modules
2 ====================
3
4 Some modules are pre-compiled due to needing cross-compilers present on the
5 build/dev machine which is inconvenient. Makefile is ready to compile them again
6 in case they are missing:
7
8 1) Prepare the linux kernel trees to build external modules, i.e.:
9
10 kernel $ make ARCH=<arch> CROSS_COMPILER=<cross-compiler-prefix> defconfig
11 kernel $ make ARCH=<arch> CROSS_COMPILER=<cross-compiler-prefix> modules_prepare
12
13 For each architecture. See the Makefile to check which are the supported architectures.
14
15 2) Export the variables below to point to the right place:
16
17 KDIR_<arch>: for each architecture it needs to point to a
18 kernel tree configured as in (1)
19
20 CROSS_COMPILER_<arch: for each architecture it needs to point to the
21 correct toolchain prefix. Leave it blank if a
22 cross-compiler is not needed (example: you are
23 building a 32b module with a multilib compiler).
24
25
26 3) Remove every %-<arch>.ko. After this the build system will recreate them.
