If we had multiple kernel modules I'd suggest splitting thing up into a native and cross-build subdirectories to get the build info, but that seems like overkill here. Instead I wonder if it would work better to handle all the native case initially in a hopefully simpler "if block" and then do subdir_done(), leaving everything else to be the cross-compilation recipe and saving at least one level of indentation. Also, throughout the block, anywhere you have an "error()" call you can use "endif" instead of "else" and save more indentation space. > kernel_dir = get_option('kernel_dir') > if kernel_dir == '' > # use default path for native builds > - kernel_version = run_command('uname', '-r').stdout().strip() > - kernel_dir = '/lib/modules/' + kernel_version > + kernel_dir = '/lib/modules/' + kernel_version + '/build' > endif > > # test running make in kernel directory, using "make kernelversion" > -make_returncode = run_command('make', '-sC', kernel_dir + '/build', > +make_returncode = run_command('make', '-sC', kernel_dir, > 'kernelversion').returncode() > if make_returncode != 0 > error('Cannot compile kernel modules as requested - are kernel headers installed?') > -- > 2.20.1 >
