 Application Makefile
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-The default makefile provided with the Hello World sample application is a good starting point. It includes:
-
-*   $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.vars.mk at the beginning
-
-*   $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.extapp.mk at the end
+The default makefile provided with the Hello World sample application is a good starting point.
 
 The user must define several variables:
 
 *   APP: Contains the name of the application.
 
 *   SRCS-y: List of source files (\*.c, \*.S).
-
-Library Makefile
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-It is also possible to build a library in the same way:
-
-*   Include $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.vars.mk at the beginning.
-
-*   Include $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.extlib.mk  at the end.
-
-The only difference is that APP should be replaced by LIB, which contains the name of the library. For example, libfoo.a.
-
-Customize Makefile Actions
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Some variables can be defined to customize Makefile actions. The most common are listed below. Refer to
-:ref:`Makefile Description <Makefile_Description>` section in
-:ref:`Development Kit Build System <Development_Kit_Build_System>`

-chapter for details.
-
-*   VPATH: The path list where the build system will search for sources. By default,
-    RTE_SRCDIR will be included in VPATH.
-
-*   CFLAGS_my_file.o: The specific flags to add for C compilation of my_file.c.
-
-*   CFLAGS: The flags to use for C compilation.
-
-*   LDFLAGS: The flags to use for linking.
-
-*   CPPFLAGS: The flags to use to provide flags to the C preprocessor (only useful when assembling .S files)
-
-*   LDLIBS: A list of libraries to link with (for example, -L /path/to/libfoo - lfoo)
