DSPLink kernel driver
Added by Andrew Holt over 12 years ago
Hi,
I have built dsplinkk.ko using the instructions on the wiki. Modinfo reports:
modinfo dsplinkk.ko
filename: dsplinkk.ko
license: GPL v2
depends:
vermagic: 2.6.34-rc1-00093-g3e8f54f-dirty preempt mod_unload modversions ARMv5
And, on my MityDSPL138 uname -r reports:
2.6.34-rc1-00093-g3e8f54f-dirty
So I copy the file on the the board, and
insmod: error inserting 'dsplinkk.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
dsplinkk: Unknown symbol __bswapsi2
Any ideas ?

Hmm...
Are you using the same build of the kernel (e.g., the same .config file) as the one that is running?
Did you use the same toolchain for both builds?
I haven't seen this particular issue. Can you post your .config file that I might try to reproduce?

Hi,
I have just rebuilt the kernel module, and I have just spotted that the build issues a warning:

In answer your your questions:
Yes.
Yes.
And .config is attached.
Thanks,

Are you passing the CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- declaration to the make as well?
