Hi,

I need to develop a new module and integrate into GRUB2. I already have the
code written, my question is how to integrate the code into the existing
GRUB2 build system so that the code gets built when make is entered at
GRUB2's top level directory?

My module is located at <Working
directory>/grub2/grub-core/testmodule/testmodule.c

Thanks,
Matt

At the minimum you need to add

module = {
  name = testmodule;
  common = testmodule/testmodule.c;
}

to grub-core/Makefile.core.def

Dear Friends,

I need to develop a new module and integrate into GRUB2. I already have the
code written, my question is how to integrate the code into the existing
GRUB2 build system so that the code gets built when make is entered at
GRUB2's top level directory?

My module is located at <Working directory>/grub2/grub-core*
/testmodule/Makefile*
So, I want to run the Makefile inside testmodule and integrate that module
into GRUB2.
Any help is greatly appreciated..


Thanks,
Vijay

Do not create your own Makefile. Look at grub-conf/Makefile.core.def

Hi Vijayakumar Venganti,

Sorry I overlooked your email last week :-(  I had the same question before
and below is how I got it to work.  You need to regenerate Makefile.in file
in your grub-core folder.  First, you need to modify Makefile.core.am to
include your new module; to see how to do this, search in
Makefile.core.amfor "hello" module.  You also need to modify
Makefile.core.def; again to
see how to do this, search in Makefile.core.def for "hello" module.  On
another machine (will be referred to as machine B), you need to install
m4-1.4.6 at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/, install autoconf-2.64, install
automake-1.11.2.  Make sure your $PATH points to the stuff you just
installed.  Then in your grub2 directory there should be a file named
autogen.sh. Copy autogen.sh and tries to run it on machine B.  There will
be warnings/errors for missing files, depending on the warnings/errors copy
files from grub2 folder over to machine B.  After autogen.sh runs
successfully, copy Makefile.in back to your work environment and from there
run your normal build.

I hope this helps,
Mat Troi

"Why do easy if you can do complicated?"
Just change Makefile.core.def and rerun ./autogen.sh. That is.
