question about module programming

Altera_Forum · ‎09-04-2006

Hi!

I have a question about developing a module un uClinux.

I have a working program under Linux, which I have to "convert" to uClinux. Theoretically, it wouldn't be much problem. The fact is, that in my previous version, I have two modules:

crc

nvram

crc is loaded as a module first. After, nvram is loaded, and nvram uses the crc functions. Other modules also use the crc functions.

So... is this possible in uClinux? When I compile my nvram module, it shows a warning:

Warning: "crc16" undefined!

And when I try to load it, it shows

insmod: cannot insert 'NVRAM_driver.ko': Unknown symbol in module (-1): No such file or directory

In linux, the nvram driver should find the crc symbols in ksyms, but I'm not sure in uClinux it will be able...

Some sugeestions?

Hi!

I've found the way to do it work!

I forgot to add:

EXPORT_SYMBOL(crc16);

to the crc file. I don't know why in linux wasn't needed, but in uClinux, ot does.
