V4L/DVB building procedures are based at the use of Makefile rules.
Those rules are close tho the ones at Linux Kernel, to allow an easier
usage.
=======================================================================
Quick building procedure is:
make all
======================================================================
For those that may want more than just build all stuff there are some
other interesting parameters to make:
======================
Normal building rules:
all - build all modules
clean - Cleans compiled files from the tree,
but keeping the latest
used configuration and kernel version
distclean - Cleans compiled files from the tree,
latest used configuration and kernel
version.
default - Continues building the latest module selection
This is the behavior when just typed:
make
install - Installs all modules at kernel's default dir
for V4L/DVB. Requires root access.
rminstall - cleans previous installations of V4L/DVB modules
sound-install - installs the sound modules related to V4L/DVB
tree.
======================
Firmware rules:
firmware - Create the firmware files that are enclosed at the
tree.
Notice: Only a very few firmwares are currently here
firmware_install- Install firmware files under /lib/firmware
======================
Documentation rules:
v4l2-spec - Creates V4L2 API specification
dvb-spec - Creates DVB API specification
spec - Creates both V4L and DVB API specification
=======================
Module selection rules:
(Those may require write access to kernel tree)
allmodconfig - Called by make all. Selects all modules that are known
to compile against the kernel version used.
xconfig - Generate a xconfig menu. Requires full
kernel source, since it depends on kernel's
qconf stript;
gconfig - Generate a qt menu. Requires full
kernel source, since it depends on kernel's
gconf stript;
config - Generate a text-mode menu. Requires full
kernel source, since it depends on kernel's
conf stript;
menuconfig - Generate a ncurses menu. Requires full
kernel source, since it depends on kernel's
mconf and lxconfig stripts;
release - Allows changing kernel version.
Typical usage is:
make release VER=2.6.12-18mdk
(to force compiling to 2.6.12-18mdk)
(This will work only if
/lib/modules/2.6.12-18mdk/build/
points to that kernel version)
Or
make release DIR=~/linux-git
(to force using kernel at a specific dir)
To use current kernel version instead:
make release
======================
Module handling rules:
(require root access)
insmod - inserts all modules from V4L/DVB tree
rmmod - removes all modules from V4L/DVB tree
reload - removes then reinserts all modules
===================
Tree merging rules:
ivtv - enable merged ivtv build, using the latest ivtv sources
from ivtvdriver.org (requires subversion)
cx88-ivtv - enable cx88-blackbird ivtv API emulation
ivtv-update - update ivtv sources from ivtvdriver.org
==========================================
Patch preparation and tree handling rules:
(used by developers)
kernel-links - Generate links to V4L/DVB at kernel tree.
Requires write access to kernel tree.
cardlist - Updates Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.*
update - updates the tree from master repository
commit - commits the change, asking for a commit msg
push - sends outgoing stuff to master repository
checkemacs - checks codingstyle and reports to emacs
using "make checkemacs" at emacs compile menu,
will report the lines with errors inside emacs.
checkpatch - checks codingstyle and reports using the same
format as c. This way, c error parsers will
handle it.
checkterse - checks codingstyle and reports using terse
syntax, used on several compilaton tools.
mismatch - checks for linker section mismatch. In other words,
check if some driver has functions not properly
declared with __init/__exit, and similar tags.
It will also be more pedantic by dealing with
compilation warnings as if they are errors.
