Back in 2004, we make the following to compile
out-of-kernel modules. It worked.

Now, the kernel build doesn't "know" how to handle "asm.S"
files and always thinks a "name.o" file is the result of
a "name.c" file, so I can't buld them no  matter how hard
I try!

What do I need to do????

#
#	Project Makefile for kernel versions over 6 
#	Created 05-OCT-2004	Richard B. Johnson
#

VER	:=	$(shell uname -r)
PWD	:=	$(shell pwd)

all:		driver

driver:
 		make V=1 -C /usr/src/linux-$(VER) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules

rtc_hwr.o:	rtc_hwr.S
 		as -o $@ $<

obj-m		= 	rtc.o
obj-m		+= 	rtc_hwr.o

clean:
 		rm -rf *.o *.ko *.mod.c \.*.cmd

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/root/BCS/rtc/rtc_hwr.c', needed by `/root/BCS/rtc/rtc_hwr.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [_module_/root/BCS/rtc] Error 2
make: *** [driver] Error 2
