[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Installing issue (Makefile configuration doesn't exist)

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Installing issue (Makefile configuration doesn't exist)

[Omar Shrit]

HI everybody:

I have four Raspberry Pi's, connected as a mesh network, I am trying
to  use Batman as routing protocol (the batman-adv module is used),
however I need to have the log file, and debug folder, as they already
doesn’t exist in the installed module in the Linux kernel.
The FAQ page explained that I have to re-install the module and
modifying the Makefile Debug option to y ,
In fact I have found that only the module which exist in the website
of Batman have these options in the Makefile, the makefile of the
module that exist in the Linux kernel is different, and doesn’t have
any option ,
by default the batman module in the Linux kernel doesn’t enable the
Debug option as I'm using in my RPI's Raspian with kernel version
3.18.5
Does anyone have any idea about how to change the options in the
module Makefile in Linux kernel before installing it ??, I need to use
cross-compile for compiling the kernel.
All suggestions are welcomed.

Thanks.

have you just tried to search in the "make menuconfig" dialog ?
There you should find all the batman-adv compile options and you can
choose the one you prefer (including debug).
