Writing An Empty Module

An empty module need only contain one include file, to resolve kernel
versioning issues:

 #include <linux/module.h> /* resolves kernel module */
                           /* versioning issues.     */
This module just contains several macros that define the kernel version it
was compiled for, and possible a few other symbols defined in linux/module.h

Compiling this module could be done using the following 'comp' script:


export KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux
MOD_DIR=`pwd`

echo "MOD_DIR - $MOD_DIR"
cd $KERNEL_DIR
gmake SUBDIRS=$MOD_DIR modules
