Subject: Why can not install kernel headers?
Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2012 01:01:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201212240101374847025@gmail.com> (raw)
I am reading an article about kernel header installtion, its links as follows:
http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.32/Documentation/make/headers_install.txt#L11
Following a command given by the article:
make headers_install ARCH=i386 INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/usr/include
the kernel headers should be installed into '/usr/include'. However, when checking
'/usr/include/linux' and '/usr/include/asm', I found actually these kernel headers have
not installed (by checking timestamps).
In fact, kernel headers have be installed into 'include' subdirectory of kernel top-level
directory. Obviously, the 'INSTALL_HDR_PATH' parameter in the above command
does not take effect. Is there any way to deal with the problem? If I have to use 'cp' to
install headers by hand, the 'INSTALL_HDR_PATH' seems not to play its roles.
