From ea01fa9f63aeff3ac918868217aa94adf76ddcc7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Borislav Petkov Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2012 18:36:18 +0200 Subject: tools: Connect to the kernel build system Now you can do $ make tools/ from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built. If you want to build and install it, do $ make tools/_install $ make tools/_clean should clean the respective tool directories. If you want to clean all in tools, simply do $ make tools/clean Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling $ make tools/ should give you the short help. $ make tools/install installs all tools, of course. Doh.
