How do I recomile just 1 kernel module. I want to recompile serial/8250.c

copy&paste from the Fedora Core 4 release notes:

6.2.2.4. Building Only Kernel Modules An exploded source tree is not required to build a kernel module, such as your own device driver, against the currently in-use kernel.

For example, to build the foo.ko module, create the following Makefile in the directory containing the foo.c file:

obj-m := foo.o

KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build PWD := $(shell pwd)

default: $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) M=$(PWD) modules

Issue the make command to build the foo.ko module.
