that mean you want only source files related to that kernel module and library separately right?
regards,
Parag.
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,

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
