Sorry, I guess I am not being clear. I have PTXdist installed here:

/usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2013.12.0

Under that directory, there is indeed a "rules" sub-directory.

The Application Note from this link:

http://pengutronix.com/software/ptxdist/appnotes/AppNote_kernel_driver.pdf

under the "Preparations" section says this:

project$ cp <ptxdist-installdir>/rules/templates/kernel/Makefile
local_src/module-template

project$ cp <ptxdist-installdir>/rules/templates/kernel/*.c
local_src/module-template

There is no sub-directory called "kernel" under the rules directory in my
directory /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2013.12.0/rules.  There are a variety of
other sub-directories but not one called "kernel". So, it would seem that
the documentation may perhaps be out of date. My questions are:

   --If the App Note is out of date, is there a newer version available?
  -- If there is not a newer version available, then can you tell me what
should be updated?

Thanks,
  Cindy
