I assume you are talking purely about user space here? So your problems boils down to this: Your compiler is unamble to find definition of certain symbols (that have been defined in the header files). Since you compiler is complaining that means it is certainly not able to find the libraries using the command line options (and env variables) passed to it. But you can always grep the "objdump" / "nm" output of the libraries to find out if they contain definition of a particular symbol, and then add them on the command line. This is better said than done, because you can have *LARGE* number of libraries on your system...

Hi List, My issue is not exactly related to Kernel. Here I am trying to build my module with the existing code present in linux environment using existing header file and library file present in different directories. The problem is, my make file is not able to find the library files of the header file which I am adding in my module. Is there is way to find out location of library file of the concerned header file.? Thanks!
