Subject: How do I compile properly after changing tcp_input.c etc?

I need to modify the tcp_input.c and tcp_output.c code
for a thesis, and want to make sure that I don't mess
things up when I recompile the code.

What do I need to do to properly recompile the tcp
functions with my modifications?

Any info would be appreciated.

Bill

As long as you don't change the way the API is presented you need only to
run 'make bzImage' (or whatever you used before) from the root of a
preconfigued tree.

If you modify some functions or structures you may need to run 'make
mrproper' (cleans out all versioning info and configuration) and then run
your usual 'make ____'.
