make KCFLAGS=-DMYSTUFF

is what you want to use then.

It is documented in Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt (briefly though).

What to do if I want different options for kernel and for modules?

Use CFLAGS_KERNEL, CFLAGS_MODULE :-)
But you then need to add "-DMODULE" to CLFAGS_MODULE because that
is lost when you override these variables.

Maybe we should fix this...
Relying on the user to add "-DMODULE" to CFLAGS_MODULE is just broken.

Following patch fixes it so we free up CFLAGS_MODULE to
be used by the user.
It drops the potentially user visible "MODFLAGS".
But alas I do not know of it being used...

Comments?

Sam

I think it makes sense to do it. Unlike CFLAGS_MODULE, the MODFLAGS
variable isn't documented anywhere, so we will have a good alibi if the
change breaks someone's custom build script ;). Please send a proper
patch and I'll add it for 2.6.36.

Thanks,
Michal
