Hello, I have included module.h in my source file. and also i compiled using this opiton: gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4/include -c <modulename>.Now when i try to load the module it throws following warning error: #/sbin/insmod ./<modulename.o> loading ./<modulename> will taint the kernel:no licence iam not able to understand why it is showing this error.
