this function is in the System.map:
c0118534 T machine_is_compatible
,but it is not in /proc/ksyms so it is not
an exported symbol right?
it is defined in linux/arch/ppc/kernel/prom.c
it basically finds the root device and calls
device_is_compatible
device_is_compatible is defined in System.map:
c00d9780 ? __kstrtab_device_is_compatible
c00ddbe0 ? __ksymtab_device_is_compatible
c01180f0 T device_is_compatible
so i looked and i see that device_is_compatible is
made exported in linux/arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:
EXPORT_SYMBOL(device_is_compatible);
ppc_ksyms.c includes prom.c
is dmasound failing because the function machine_is_compatible
is not exported?
can i fix this by adding
EXPORT_SYMBOL(machine_is_compatible);
to ppc_ksyms.c ?
what part in any of this do the files in
linux/include/linux/modules play?
there is a ppc_ksyms.ver and ppc_ksyms.stamp
ppc_ksyms.ver has a couple of statements that
have to do with device_is_compatible
for your reference:
sound worked when sound was compiled into the kernel(2.2.6 though).
the correct System.map was loaded, verified with dmesg and
/var/log/messages.
unrelated but...
soundcore.o was already loaded
alias sound dmasound added to /etc/conf.modules
can you reply directly to me too, i get the kernel-digest.
thanks,
