[OpenWrt-Devel] MAKE_ARGS?

[Mauro Mozzarelli]

Hi Yousong,

I think I found where the problem is with environment variables for Makefile.
If add MYVAR=something in MAKE_FLAGS this is passed as argument to "make", but it
isn't set as an environment variable. So when make invokes another Makefile in a
sub directory (like "libipvs") the variable isn't passed along, hence the issue
with ipvsadm. In our case the only thing that works is to set the parameter with
-D in CFLAGS

Best regards,
Mauro
