Environment variables | ||
|
||
KCPPFLAGS | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Additional options to pass when preprocessing. The preprocessing options | ||
will be used in all cases where kbuild do preprocessing including | ||
building C files and assembler files. | ||
|
||
KAFLAGS | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Additional options to the assembler. | ||
|
||
KCFLAGS | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Additional options to the C compiler. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_VERBOSE | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Set the kbuild verbosity. Can be assinged same values as "V=...". | ||
See make help for the full list. | ||
Setting "V=..." takes precedence over KBUILD_VERBOSE. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_EXTMOD | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Set the directory to look for the kernel source when building external | ||
modules. | ||
The directory can be specified in several ways: | ||
1) Use "M=..." on the command line | ||
2) Environmnet variable KBUILD_EXTMOD | ||
3) Environmnet variable SUBDIRS | ||
The possibilities are listed in the order they take precedence. | ||
Using "M=..." will always override the others. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_OUTPUT | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Specify the output directory when building the kernel. | ||
The output directory can also be specificed using "O=...". | ||
Setting "O=..." takes precedence over KBUILD_OUTPUT | ||
|
||
ARCH | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Set ARCH to the architecture to be built. | ||
In most cases the name of the architecture is the same as the | ||
directory name found in the arch/ directory. | ||
But some architectures suach as x86 and sparc has aliases. | ||
x86: i386 for 32 bit, x86_64 for 64 bit | ||
sparc: sparc for 32 bit, sparc64 for 64 bit | ||
|
||
CROSS_COMPILE | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Specify an optional fixed part of the binutils filename. | ||
CROSS_COMPILE can be a part of the filename or the full path. | ||
|
||
CROSS_COMPILE is also used for ccache is some setups. | ||
|
||
CF | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Additional options for sparse. | ||
CF is often used on the command-line like this: | ||
|
||
make CF=-Wbitwise C=2 | ||
|
||
INSTALL_PATH | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map | ||
images. Default is /boot, but you can set it to other values | ||
|
||
|
||
MODLIB | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
Specify where to install modules. | ||
The default value is: | ||
|
||
$(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE) | ||
|
||
The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | ||
|
||
INSTALL_MOD_PATH | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
INSTALL_MOD_PATH specifies a prefix to MODLIB for module directory | ||
relocations required by build roots. This is not defined in the | ||
makefile but the argument can be passed to make if needed. | ||
|
||
INSTALL_MOD_STRIP | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
INSTALL_MOD_STRIP, if defined, will cause modules to be | ||
stripped after they are installed. If INSTALL_MOD_STRIP is '1', then | ||
the default option --strip-debug will be used. Otherwise, | ||
INSTALL_MOD_STRIP will used as the options to the strip command. | ||
|
||
INSTALL_FW_PATH | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
INSTALL_FW_PATH specify where to install the firmware blobs. | ||
The default value is: | ||
|
||
$(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/firmware | ||
|
||
The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | ||
|
||
INSTALL_HDR_PATH | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
INSTALL_HDR_PATH specify where to install user space headers when | ||
executing "make headers_*". | ||
The default value is: | ||
|
||
$(objtree)/usr | ||
|
||
$(objtree) is the directory where output files are saved. | ||
The output directory is often set using "O=..." on the commandline. | ||
|
||
The value can be overridden in which case the default value is ignored. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN can be set to avoid error out in case of undefined | ||
symbols in the final module linking stage. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_MODPOST_FINAL | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL can be set to skip the final link of modules. | ||
This is solely usefull to speed up test compiles. | ||
|
||
KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
For modules use symbols from another modules. | ||
See more details in modules.txt. |

This file contains some assistance for using "make *config". | ||
|
||
Use "make help" to list all of the possible configuration targets. | ||
|
||
The xconfig ('qconf') and menuconfig ('mconf') programs also | ||
have embedded help text. Be sure to check it for navigation, | ||
search, and other general help text. | ||
|
||
====================================================================== | ||
General | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
New kernel releases often introduce new config symbols. Often more | ||
important, new kernel releases may rename config symbols. When | ||
this happens, using a previously working .config file and running | ||
"make oldconfig" won't necessarily produce a working new kernel | ||
for you, so you may find that you need to see what NEW kernel | ||
symbols have been introduced. | ||
|
||
To see a list of new config symbols when using "make oldconfig", use | ||
|
||
cp user/some/old.config .config | ||
yes "" | make oldconfig >conf.new | ||
|
||
and the config program will list as (NEW) any new symbols that have | ||
unknown values. Of course, the .config file is also updated with | ||
new (default) values, so you can use: | ||
|
||
grep "(NEW)" conf.new | ||
|
||
to see the new config symbols or you can 'diff' the previous and | ||
new .config files to see the differences: | ||
|
||
diff .config.old .config | less | ||
|
||
(Yes, we need something better here.) | ||
|
||
|
||
====================================================================== | ||
menuconfig | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
SEARCHING for CONFIG symbols | ||
|
||
Searching in menuconfig: | ||
|
||
The Search function searches for kernel configuration symbol | ||
names, so you have to know something close to what you are | ||
looking for. | ||
|
||
Example: | ||
/hotplug | ||
This lists all config symbols that contain "hotplug", | ||
e.g., HOTPLUG, HOTPLUG_CPU, MEMORY_HOTPLUG. | ||
|
||
For search help, enter / followed TAB-TAB-TAB (to highlight | ||
<Help>) and Enter. This will tell you that you can also use | ||
regular expressions (regexes) in the search string, so if you | ||
are not interested in MEMORY_HOTPLUG, you could try | ||
|
||
/^hotplug | ||
|
||
|
||

Color Themes for 'menuconfig' | ||
|
||
It is possible to select different color themes using the variable | ||
MENUCONFIG_COLOR. To select a theme use: | ||
|
||
make MENUCONFIG_COLOR=<theme> menuconfig | ||
|
||
Available themes are: | ||
mono => selects colors suitable for monochrome displays | ||
blackbg => selects a color scheme with black background | ||
classic => theme with blue background. The classic look | ||
bluetitle => a LCD friendly version of classic. (default) | ||
|
||

Environment variables in 'menuconfig' | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
(partially based on lkml email from/by Rob Landley, re: miniconfig) | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
The allyesconfig/allmodconfig/allnoconfig/randconfig variants can | ||
also use the environment variable KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG as a flag or a | ||
filename that contains config symbols that the user requires to be | ||
set to a specific value. If KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is used without a | ||
filename, "make *config" checks for a file named | ||
"all{yes/mod/no/random}.config" (corresponding to the *config command | ||
that was used) for symbol values that are to be forced. If this file | ||
is not found, it checks for a file named "all.config" to contain forced | ||
values. | ||
|
||
This enables you to create "miniature" config (miniconfig) or custom | ||
config files containing just the config symbols that you are interested | ||
in. Then the kernel config system generates the full .config file, | ||
including dependencies of your miniconfig file, based on the miniconfig | ||
file. | ||
|
||
This 'KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG' file is a config file which contains | ||
(usually a subset of all) preset config symbols. These variable | ||
settings are still subject to normal dependency checks. | ||
|
||
Examples: | ||
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=custom-notebook.config make allnoconfig | ||
or | ||
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=mini.config make allnoconfig | ||
or | ||
make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=mini.config allnoconfig | ||
|
||
These examples will disable most options (allnoconfig) but enable or | ||
disable the options that are explicitly listed in the specified | ||
mini-config files. | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
If this variable has a non-blank value, it prevents silent kernel | ||
config udpates (requires explicit updates). | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_CONFIG | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
This environment variable can be used to specify a default kernel config | ||
file name to override the default name of ".config". | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_OVERWRITECONFIG | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
If you set KCONFIG_OVERWRITECONFIG in the environment, Kconfig will not | ||
break symlinks when .config is a symlink to somewhere else. | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_NOTIMESTAMP | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
If this environment variable exists and is non-null, the timestamp line | ||
in generated .config files is omitted. | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_AUTOCONFIG | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
This environment variable can be set to specify the path & name of the | ||
"auto.conf" file. Its default value is "include/config/auto.conf". | ||
|
||
KCONFIG_AUTOHEADER | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
This environment variable can be set to specify the path & name of the | ||
"autoconf.h" (header) file. Its default value is "include/linux/autoconf.h". | ||
|
||
______________________________________________________________________ | ||
menuconfig User Interface Options | ||
---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
MENUCONFIG_MODE | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
This mode shows all sub-menus in one large tree. | ||
|
||
Example: | ||
MENUCONFIG_MODE=single_menu make menuconfig | ||
|
||
====================================================================== | ||
xconfig | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
Searching in xconfig: | ||
|
||
The Search function searches for kernel configuration symbol | ||
names, so you have to know something close to what you are | ||
looking for. | ||
|
||
Example: | ||
Ctrl-F hotplug | ||
or | ||
Menu: File, Search, hotplug | ||
|
||
lists all config symbol entries that contain "hotplug" in | ||
the symbol name. In this Search dialog, you may change the | ||
config setting for any of the entries that are not grayed out. | ||
You can also enter a different search string without having | ||
to return to the main menu. | ||
|
||
|
||
====================================================================== | ||
gconfig | ||
-------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
Searching in gconfig: | ||
|
||
None (gconfig isn't maintained as well as xconfig or menuconfig); | ||
however, gconfig does have a few more viewing choices than | ||
xconfig does. | ||
