Compile Linux Kernel Modules

我正在学习写linux device driver for embedded system.
我有一个linux嵌入式设备，也有这个设备的linux源代码。也有cross compiler tool chain.
第一步，就是写一个简单的hello模块，然后装到设备中。以验证我这个开发环境。
在网上搜索了一下， how to cross compile linux device driver
发现在linux代码根目录的Makefile中有关于cross compile的描述
# Cross compiling and selecting different set of gcc/bin-utils
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# When performing cross compilation for other architectures ARCH shall be set
# to the target architecture. (See arch/* for the possibilities).
# ARCH can be set during invocation of make:
# make ARCH=ia64
# Another way is to have ARCH set in the environment.
# The default ARCH is the host where make is executed.
# CROSS_COMPILE specify the prefix used for all executables used
# during compilation. Only gcc and related bin-utils executables
# are prefixed with $(CROSS_COMPILE).
# CROSS_COMPILE can be set on the command line
# make CROSS_COMPILE=ia64-linux-
# Alternatively CROSS_COMPILE can be set in the environment.
# Default value for CROSS_COMPILE is not to prefix executables
# Note: Some architectures assign CROSS_COMPILE in their arch/*/Makefile
只要指定ARCH和CROSS_COMPILE就可以了。
在我的这个Makefile中，已经指定了ARCH=arm，CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-
因为在编译module的时候，使用的是内核构造系统，也就是使用的上面所说的这个在内核源码根目录的Makefile。所以我就不需要在我调用make的命令行中指定ARCH和CROSS_COMPILE了。
用来测试的hello模块的源码来自 http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-module.html
hello.c
#include <linux/module.h> /* Needed by all modules */
#include <linux/kernel.h> /* Needed for KERN_INFO */
#include <linux/init.h> /* Needed for the macros */
static int __init hello_start(void)
{
printk(KERN_INFO "Loading hello module...\n");
printk(KERN_INFO "Hello world\n");
return 0;
}
static void
