You are right. My module has been compiled into the kernel though.
But when the kernel starts I do not see it registered.
This is what I did
1)saved my module .c file in drivers/crypto/
2)edited drivers/kernel/Makefile adding obj-$(CONFIG_CRYPTO_MYMODULE) += mymodule.o
3)edited the drivers/crypto/Kconfig adding
config CRYPTO_MYMODULE
tristate "My module test"
help
Enable to test it
4)make menuconfig => setting my module to be built into the kernel
Thank you,

on the kernel command line for modules that have been *compiled into*
the kernel, no? that won't work for loadable modules, but i'm willing
to be corrected.
