help in address issues with a new driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings, 

I'm working on a driver intended to be sent to staging soon and I've encountered two issue I'd like to get help with.
the driver's hierarchy is one module file shared by other two modules.
when I try to select both all three drivers as modules, I the following these two errors:
~/workspace/linux-staging.git$ make modules -j 9
scripts/kconfig/conf  --syncconfig Kconfig

vsmp_version.o is one file out of two in one module named common, the other one is the main entry point for the module, is it logical I need to define MODULE_LICENSE in both files?
prior to the common module, the api module should be build but it isn't for some reason, the makefile looks like this:
# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

ccflags-y += -I $(srctree)/drivers/staging/vsmp-guest-driver/include

obj-$(CONFIG_VSMP_GUEST_DRIVER) := api/vsmp_api.o
obj-$(CONFIG_VSMP_GUEST_DRIVER_COMMON) := common/vsmp_common.o
obj-$(CONFIG_VSMP_GUEST_DRIVER_COMMON) += common/vsmp_version.o
obj-$(CONFIG_VSMP_GUEST_DRIVER_LOG) := vsmp_logs_handler.o

any ideas what I did wrong with the configuration?

Thanks,

Eial
