Hi all,

When compiling an external module, is it possible to use both 'O=...'
and 'M=...' in the make command line ?

Here is an example :

[matz@barracuda linux-2.6.13.4]$ pwd
/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4
[matz@barracuda linux-2.6.13.4]$ make V=1 M=~/module_helloworld
mkdir -p /home/matz/module_helloworld/.tmp_versions
make -f scripts/Makefile.build obj=/home/matz/module_helloworld
   rm -f /home/matz/module_helloworld/built-in.o; ar rcs
/home/matz/module_helloworld/built-in.o
  gcc -m32 -Wp,-MD,/home/matz/module_helloworld/.helloworld.o.d
-nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.3/include
-D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs
-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -ffreestanding -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-g -pipe -msoft-float -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2  -march=i686
-mregparm=3 -Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default
-Wdeclaration-after-statement    -DMODULE -DKBUILD_BASENAME=helloworld
-DKBUILD_MODNAME=helloworld -c -o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.c
  Building modules, stage 2.
make -rR -f /usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4/scripts/Makefile.modpost
  scripts/mod/modpost   -i /usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4/Module.symvers
vmlinux /home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.o
  gcc -m32 -Wp,-MD,/home/matz/module_helloworld/.helloworld.mod.o.d
-nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.3/include
-D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs
-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -ffreestanding -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-g -pipe -msoft-float -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2  -march=i686
-mregparm=3 -Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default
-Wdeclaration-after-statement     -DKBUILD_BASENAME=helloworld
-DKBUILD_MODNAME=helloworld -DMODULE -c -o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.mod.o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.mod.c
  ld -m elf_i386 -m elf_i386 -r -o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.ko
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.mod.o


Now imagine /home/matz is read-only, and I want to generate the objects
file in /tmp :

[matz@barracuda linux-2.6.13.4]$ make V=1 M=~/module_helloworld O=/tmp
make -C /tmp            \
KBUILD_SRC=/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4             KBUILD_VERBOSE=1   \
KBUILD_CHECK= KBUILD_EXTMOD="/home/matz/module_helloworld"      \
        -f /usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4/Makefile _all
/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4/Makefile:485: .config: No such file or
directory
mkdir -p /home/matz/module_helloworld/.tmp_versions

  WARNING: Symbol version dump /tmp/Module.symvers
           is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.

make -f /usr/local/src/linux-2.6.13.4/scripts/Makefile.build

  gcc -m32 -Wp,-MD,/home/matz/module_helloworld/.helloworld.o.d

-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2

-Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default -Wdeclaration-after-statement -DMODULE
-DKBUILD_BASENAME=helloworld -DKBUILD_MODNAME=helloworld -c -o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.o
/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.c
/bin/sh: line 1: scripts/basic/fixdep: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [/home/matz/module_helloworld/helloworld.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [_module_/home/matz/module_helloworld] Error 2
make: *** [_all] Error 2

Is it a bug or this is not supposed to work ?

Thanks & regards
Olivier
