-=== Raspbian for Raspberry Pi ===+WARNING: The underlying kernel API this module uses may have been removed from your running kernel. 
 +=== Build === 
 + 
 +This module is built out of kernel and depends on the header files and tools found locally or may be cross compiled. 
 + 
 +For cross compilation, an example Makefile named `cross-compile.mk' is provided which should work for Raspberry PI OS as explained [[:tools:raspbian#kernel|here]]. 
 + 
 +If the linux source directory was cross compiled and then copied to the target system to build the module, `scripts.sh' is provided to rebuild certain kernel header scripts locally. This is needed because some scripts are actually binary files on the foreign architecture.
