+/** \page Page_BuildSystem The LUFA Build System
+ *
+ * \section Sec_BuildSystem_Overview Overview of the LUFA Build System
+ * The LUFA build system was originally an attempt at making a set of
+ * re-usable, modular build make files which could be referenced in a LUFA
+ * powered project, to minimize the amount of code required in an
+ * application makefile.
+ *
+ * As it turned out to be fairly generic in nature, it was split out into its
+ * own separate project, called DMBS (<i>Dean's Makefile Build System</i>)
+ * which is released into the public domain. LUFA-specific portions of the
+ * LUFA build system extend DMBS, and provide a universal build system for all
+ * LUFA projects.
+ *
+ * The latest DMBS project information and documentation can be found at:
+ * https://github.com/abcminiuser/dmbs
+ *
+ * DMBS is written in GNU Make, and each module is independent of one-another.
+ *
+ * LUFA now uses DMBS for its build system, with some LUFA specific extension
+ * modules.
+ *
+ * If you have problems building using LUFA, see \subpage Page_BuildTroubleshooting for resolution steps.

+/** \page Page_BuildModule_LUFA_SOURCES LUFA SOURCES extension module for DMBS
+ *
+ * The LUFA SOURCES extension more for DMBS provides LUFA specific variables
+ * listing the various LUFA source files required to be build by a project for
+ * a given LUFA module. This module gives a way to reference LUFA source files
+ * symbolically, so that changes to the library structure do not break the
+ * library makefile.

+/** \page Page_BuildTroubleshooting Troubleshooting Information
+ *
+ * LUFA uses a lot of advanced features of the AVR-GCC compiler, linker, and
+ * surrounding binaries. This can sometimes lead to problems compiling
+ * applications if one of these features is buggy in the version of the tools
+ * used in a build environment. Missing utilities and incorrectly set makefile
+ * configuration options can also result in different errors being produced
+ * when compilation or other operations are attempted. The table below lists a
+ * set of commonly encountered errors and their resolutions.
+ *
+ * <table>
+ * <tr>
+ * <th>Problem</th>
+ * <th>Resolution</th>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>relocation truncated to fit: R_AVR_13_PCREL against symbol <i>{X}</i></tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>Try compiling with the setting <tt>LINKER_RELAXATIONS=N</tt> in your LUFA Build System 2.0 makefile, or remove the line <tt>-Wl,--relax</tt>
+ * from other makefiles. Alternatively, make sure you have the latest version of the Atmel Toolchain installed for your system.</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>error: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>

+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>EMERGENCY ABORT: INFINITE RECURSION DETECTED</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>Make sure you are using an up to date version of GNU Make when compiling. This error is a safety system added to the mid-level makefiles, to prevent an issue with
+ * GNU make or other variants of Make causing an infinitely recursive build.</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>Unsupported architecture "<i>{X}</i>"</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>Ensure your makefile's <tt>ARCH</tt> setting is set to one of the architecture names (case-sensitive) supported by the version of LUFA you are compiling against.</td>

+ * build system modules. Define the value in your project makefile and try again.</td>
+ * </tr>

+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>Makefile <i>{X}</i> option cannot be blank</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>The specified Makefile value was configured in your project's makefile or on the command line, but was set to an empty value. For the nominated configuration
+ * option, an empty value is not allowed. Define the nominated setting to a correct non-blank value and try again.</td>

+ * <td>The specified Makefile value was configured in your project's makefile or on the command line, but was set to a value other than a Y (for "Yes") or "N" (for "No").

+ * recognise. The file extensions are case sensitive, and must be one of the supported formats (<tt>*.c</tt>, <tt>*.cpp</tt> or <tt>*.S</tt>).</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>Cannot build with OBJDIR parameter set - one or more object file name is not unique</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>When a project is built with a non-empty <tt>OBJDIR</tt> object directory name set, all input source files must have unique names, excluding extension and path.
+ * This means that input files that are named identically and differ only by their path or extension are invalid when this mode is used.</td>
+ * </tr>

+ * options. The nominated compiler switch may be invalid, or unsupported by the version of AVR-GCC on the host system. Remove the unrecognised flag if invalid, or
+ * upgrade to the latest AVR-GCC. If the option is a valid linker option, use the prefix "-Wl," to ensure it is passed to the linker correctly.</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>makefile:{X}: {Y}.mk: No such file or directory</tt></b>" shown when make is invoked.</td>
+ * <td>The path to the nominated makefile module was incorrect. This usually indicates that the makefile <tt>LUFA_PATH</tt> option is not set to a valid relative or
+ * absolute path to the LUFA library core.</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>fatal error: LUFAConfig.h: No such file or directory</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>The <tt>USE_LUFA_CONFIG_HEADER</tt> compile time option was set in the user project makefile, but the user supplied <tt>LUFAConfig.h</tt> header could not be

+ * <td>The bootloader is compiling too large for the given <tt>FLASH_SIZE_KB</tt> and <tt>BOOT_SECTION_SIZE_KB</tt> parameters set in the bootloader makefile. This
+ * usually indicates that these values are incorrect for the specified device the bootloader is targeting. If these values are correct, a newer version of the

+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td>Error "<b><tt>undefined reference to `<i>{X}</i>'</tt></b>" shown when compiling.</td>
+ * <td>This is usually caused by a missing source file in the user application's <tt>SRC</tt> configuration parameter. If the indicated symbol is one from the LUFA
