Hello

I have probably a stupid question. How do I add an include path for kernel module makefile? I want to include "test_kernel.h" in test_module.c
test_kernel.h resides in a different directory with relative path "../../common/" . I can include the file specifying the relative path, which works OK:

#include "../../common/test_kernel.h"

I would like include it without the relative path and specify path in Makefile similar to -I option available in application makefiles. I have tried EXTRA_CFLAGS += -I../../common/ in the makefile but no use. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

SOLVED

Relative paths don't work. It has to be absolute path.
eg EXTRA_CFLAGS += -I$(PWD)/../../common/
