Compile one file in kernel

Compile one file in kernel

[Zhang, Wei-Jovi (NSN - CN/Hangzhou)]

Hi,
	I always using command make, then it will compile all files. How
about just compile one c file(just make sure some modify can compile
successful), how should I do? Is there any command to allow me to doing
this?
	Thanks.

Apparently not, you should run "rm -f <filename>.o" firstly, then "make <filename>.o"
Maybe you can write a script to do this if you want to.

If .o file is not cleaned, make will automatically select the changed files
to compile and link?

You can always find these info in `make help`:

...
  dir/            - Build all files in dir and below
  dir/file.[oisS] - Build specified target only
  dir/file.lst    - Build specified mixed source/assembly target only
                    (requires a recent binutils and recent build (System.map))
  dir/file.ko     - Build module including final link
...

Sorry, I forgot it,  make will compare the timestamp of .c and .o file

You mean make will not compare the timestamp of .c and .o file?
