Building the UMP Device Driver for Linux
 | 
						|
----------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Build the UMP Device Driver for Linux by running the following make command:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
KDIR=<kdir_path> CONFIG=<your_config> BUILD=<build_option> make
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
where
 | 
						|
    kdir_path: Path to your Linux Kernel directory
 | 
						|
    your_config: Name of the sub-folder to find the required config.h file
 | 
						|
                 ("arch-" will be prepended)
 | 
						|
    build_option: debug or release. Debug is default.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The config.h contains following configuration parameters:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
ARCH_UMP_BACKEND_DEFAULT
 | 
						|
    0 specifies the dedicated memory allocator.
 | 
						|
    1 specifies the OS memory allocator.
 | 
						|
ARCH_UMP_MEMORY_ADDRESS_DEFAULT
 | 
						|
    This is only required for the dedicated memory allocator, and specifies
 | 
						|
    the physical start address of the memory block reserved for UMP.
 | 
						|
ARCH_UMP_MEMORY_SIZE_DEFAULT
 | 
						|
    This specified the size of the memory block reserved for UMP, or the
 | 
						|
    maximum limit for allocations from the OS.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The result will be a ump.ko file, which can be loaded into the Linux kernel
 | 
						|
by using the insmod command. The driver can also be built as a part of the
 | 
						|
kernel itself.
