Hello, I insert a module with a variable mysec and function process_proc_write_myfile as EXPORT_SYMBOL. I compile it with gcc -O2 -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -c myprocmod.c -I /usr/src/linux-2.4.24/include -Wall. Then i check /proc/ksyms c8146c20 mysec_R__ver_mysec [mybufproc] c8146060 process_proc_write_myfile_R__ver_process_proc_write_myfile [mybufproc] c8146000 __insmod_mybufproc_O/home/guest/mybufproc.o_M42196265_V132120 [mybufproc] c8146060 __insmod_mybufproc_S.text_L1188 [mybufproc] c8146520 __insmod_mybufproc_S.rodata_L228 [mybufproc] c8146760 __insmod_mybufproc_S.data_L180 [mybufproc] I want to know what are the above entries signifies? also why my exported variable and function have versioning as its own n ame compared to standard system calls in my /proc/ksyms as c01f27d0 sock_create_Rec6d66f4 c01f1dc0 sock_alloc_R96b54654 c01f1e80 sock_release_Rf85fb0bf c01f3d30 sock_setsockopt_R12de6517 c01f4280 sock_getsockopt_R617c6ea6 c01f1ee0 sock_sendmsg_Ra6caf726 c01f1fa0 sock_recvmsg_Rae57d3e3 regards, linux_lover __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
