Subject: [net-next PATCH V2 4/5] samples/bpf: allow make to be run from samples/bpf/ directory
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 18:27:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160426162727.22962.51631.stgit@firesoul> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160426162650.22962.20516.stgit@firesoul>
It is not intuitive that 'make' must be run from the top level
directory with argument "samples/bpf/" to compile these eBPF samples.
Introduce a kbuild make file trick that allow make to be run from the
"samples/bpf/" directory itself. It basically change to the top level
directory and call "make samples/bpf/" with the "/" slash after the
directory name.
Also add a clean target that only cleans this directory, by taking
advantage of the kbuild external module setting M=$PWD.
