RE: how to get sources for kernel-compatible modules

I need to build a  driver-update-diskette(libcrc32c crc32c)  for  different platforms, so need  sources for that.

I am sorry its not kernel design  related thing, but  just dropped the question here if  someone  knows.

 

Thanks very much

Hi vikas,
     Have you checked contents of directory  /lib/modules/2.6.9-22.EL/kernel/lib/. i think you will find there libcrc32c.ko which is already compiled and installed module on you system.
     when i locate for crc32 on my linux system i found both modules are already installed.
[parag@localhost crypto]$ locate crc32c.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.9-22.EL/kernel/lib/libcrc32c.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.9-22.EL/kernel/crypto/crc32c.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.9-22.ELsmp/kernel/lib/libcrc32c.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.9-22.ELsmp/kernel/crypto/crc32c.ko

regards,
Parag.

Hi All,

 

I need to build  crc32c.ko  and  libcrc32c.ko   for  kernel 2.6.9-22.ELsmp , 2.6.9-22-EL, 2.6.9-22.ELhugemem.

Currently I   use the sources from  linux-2.6.9.tar.bz2   which  takes lot of time.  Crc32c.c  resides in KERNEL_SRC/crypto

and libcrc32c resides in KERNEL_SRC/lib.

 

What are the other ways to get the sources for these kernel modules?  I could not find them on rpmfind.net.

Just wanted to avoid doing  untar/bunzip2  of whole kernel tree while I need only two  module source files.

 

Thanks in advance
