Hello Gurus I have a kernel module which uses sys_open(), however, when I insmod, I got unknown symbol sys_open(). Do you know why? By the way, I use kernel 2.6.11 . Thanks a lot. bash-2.05b# insmod flash.ko aesop_flash: Unknown symbol sys_open Dec 4 07:08:56 localhost kernel: aesop_flash: Unknown symbol sys_open insmod: error inserting 'flash.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
Use vanilla kernel from kernel.org. Some distributions apply patches to kernel that prevent them from exporting system call handlers. jinesh. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
