Beta2024 · 01-16-2024, 05:02 AM

Hello,
I am newbie, and I got a problem with make file in Linux, please help me.
My makefile as below:
obj-m += helloMod.o
all:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules
clean:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean

And I got Error:
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/5.10.168-ti-r71/build: No such file or directory. Stop.

I stuck right here, please help me, thanks a lot!

Have you reviewed the path to see what actually exists?

I checked the path, and I see I don't have build folder in 5.10.168-ti-r71.
Please take a look in the picture I attached.
What should I do?

Thank you.

I would create the missing "build" directory.
On the command line with mkdir or sudo mkdir

I wouldn't - this is where kernel headers are expected to be, it is meaningless without its contents. You should install the appropriate linux-headers package.

I found my problem.
I already install kernel headers, but it exists in usr/src/linux-headers-5.1-.168-ti-r71.

I have 2 ways to resolve my problem.
1. Change the path in Makefile to: make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-5.1-.168-ti-r71 M=$(PWD) modules
2. Create a symbol: ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-5.1-.168-ti-r71/ /lib/linux-headers-5.1-.168-ti-r71/build

Thanks all!!!
