Subject: problems compiling kernel module
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 09:44:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44463EA8.9090301@hotmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I am really stuck with this thing.. For couple of days i have been 
trying to compile a kernel module. I have been following the info in 
http://www.faqs.org/docs/kernel/x204.html. But no success... i 
recompiled the latest kernel version, and i think i trying to compile 
the module against the source code for that kernel.. however, strange 
errors appear.

Please any help will be appreciated.

Here's the error:

Code:

[fbarsoba@localhost ~]$ cd workspace/kernel_tests/
[fbarsoba@localhost kernel_tests]$ make
gcc -O2 -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wmissing-prototypes -isystem /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include -c

And here are the files:

Code:

/* hello-1.c - The simplest kernel module.
*/ #include <linux/module.h> /* Needed by all modules
*/ #include <linux/kernel.h> /* Needed for KERN_ALERT */

int init_module(void) {
printk("<1>Hello world 1.\n"); // A non 0 return means init_module 
failed; module can't be loaded.
return 0;
}

void cleanup_module(void) {
printk(KERN_ALERT "Goodbye world 1.\n");
}


Code:

TARGET := hello-1
WARN := -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes
INCLUDE := -isystem /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include
CFLAGS := -O2 -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ ${WARN} ${INCLUDE} CC := gcc
${TARGET}.o: ${TARGET}.c
.PHONY: clean
clean: rm -rf {TARGET}.o
