4. Now to compile the driver, enter the following command:
make
The code is compiled and the binaries are generated in the
source/host/release
folder
.
For embedded
platforms, modify the path assigned to the
"DEF_KERNEL_DIR"
variable in the Makefile:
cd
RS9116.NXX.NL.GEN.LNX.x.y.z/source/host
vim Makefile
The
DEF_KERNEL_DIR
variable has to be assigned along with the compiled kernel path. For an x86 based
Linux platform, the path is usually
"/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/build"
and this is the path assigned in
the
Makefile
provided in the package.
Example:
DEF_KERNEL_DIR:= /lib/modules/
3.4
.
66
/build
Next, use the
"make"
command to start compiling the driver. For embedded platforms, add the target
platform and toolchain path as cross compilation option to the
"make"
command.
For example, if the target platform is ARM and tool chain path is
"/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.4.4-
glibc-2.11.1-multilib-1.0/arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-"
, then the command is
issued as:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.4.4-glibc-2.11.1-multilib-1.0/arm-fsl-linux-
gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
