The CentOS way of "Build Your Own Kernel Modules" is described in this CentOS wiki article: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BuildingKernelModules I suggest you try method 1 first to see if you can build your module. Once confirmed, you may want to proceed to method 3 to build a kABI-compatible module. You can ask further questions about kmods either here, or better yet, on the ELRepo's mailing list. ELRepo ( http://elrepo.org ) builds a number of kernel modules for RHEL/CentOS/SL.
