Hi list,,
gng by the Kernel Module initialisation code (
kernel/module.c-sys_init_module() function ), it is trying flush
i-cache ranges and i really failed to understand why it is doing it...
Can anybody explain us,, why it is doing the same....
======================================================
Code snipped from Kernel/module.c ,sys_init_module
------------------------------------------------
if (mod->module_init)
flush_icache_range((unsigned long)mod->module_init,
(unsigned long)mod->module_init
+ mod->init_size);
flush_icache_range((unsigned long)mod->module_core,
(unsigned long)mod->module_core +
mod->core_size);
========================================================
Thank You

Installation procedure:
Install user mode linux (see http://user-mode-linux.sf.net).
You are asking on the *WRONG* list. Didn't I mention user-mode-linux
mailing list three times already?
Besides this time you are asking a bad question (google for how to ask
questions the smart way).

Suggest me
the packages and small projects that I can carry out as a beginner. I
visited the site and found many software

You obviously need kernel sources, tools needed to compile it (listed in
Documentation/Changes in kernel sources and some good editor to program
in.
As for the utilities you need for user-mode-linux, ask on the
user-mode-linux
list (you have seen it's address on user-mode-linux web, right). But you
should need the tools package and some root filesystem for the virtual
machine (might be actually better to create one yourself, perhaps with
some
tool that are normally used to create 'rescue disk'.

Go see their web (user-mode-linux.sf.net) and, if you don't find the
information there, ask on their mailing list (which you /will/ find on
the web).
