Then I renamed the directory containing all the modules: /lib/modules/`uname -r` to /lib/modules/bobobo Next I plug in a USB thumbdrive --> without the last step of renaming the modules subdirectory: [ 9016.586625] usb 6-1: USB disconnect, address 2 [ 9017.750008] usb 6-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 [ 9017.883094] usb 6-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 9018.273772] Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... [ 9018.357303] scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices [ 9018.387822] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage [ 9018.387828] USB Mass Storage support registered. The usb_storage.ko will be automatically be reloaded by usbcore (which is built into the kernel, not a module at all - check drivers/usb/core/driver.c:usb_register() for example, which will automatically reload the usb_storage.ko. this part of usb logic is built into the kernel, not as any module, if u observe the CONFIG_XXXXX available inside this file). But after I rename the subdirectory, usb_storage.ko remain permanently not loaded. Your aim partially achieved......at least now the thumbdrive cannot be used for storage anymore. > > 2)After that i have to make that port work through " USB modules" > installation by myself...it should work after i installed that USB > modules...i dont want to recompile the kernel and make the USB support > enable...just i want to do by modules installation... anytime u want to reenable it....just rename the subdirectory. > > 3)whether "usbcore and ehci-hcd" modules are enough to make USB port to > work....and whether it is possible when the USB support is disabled in the > kernel?if not what to do for that? > I think usbcore is not a module. not sure about the intend of your question. are u asking for dependencies among usb components? read into drivers/usb/Kconfig file, all the dependencies are described there. > what to do for that...please explain me....sorry to disturb you.... > > --- On Thu, 1/1/09, Mark Brown <markb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > From: Mark Brown <markb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: symbol table.... > To: shariefbe@xxxxxxxxxxx > Cc: "Kernel newbies" <kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Thursday, 1 January, 2009, 4:14 AM > > Sorry I am really confused about what you want to do. :-( You should take > the time to read the USB kernel documentation in linux/Documentation/usb. > Regards, > -- Mark > On Dec 31, 2008, at 6:28 AM, niamathullah sharief wrote: > > ok katiyar and mark...i am ready to enable that usb support in > kernel...when i enable it will work...but my project is it should not > work...i have to make the USB port work...so what to do for that...the USB > port should not work when i insert any type of USB devices...even it should > not dtect that device....after that i have to make that USB port to > work...so what to do for that?sorry if i confussed you people...kindly help > me...cause i novice.... > > --- On Wed, 31/12/08, Manish Katiyar <mkatiyar@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > From: Manish Katiyar <mkatiyar@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: symbol table.... > To: "Mark Brown" <markb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: shariefbe@xxxxxxxxxxx, "Kernel newbies" <kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Wednesday, 31 December, 2008, 10:01 AM > > On Wed, Dec 31, 2008 at 9:29 AM, Mark Brown <markb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: >> Hi, >> I think you are missing the point that you need to build USB support in >> order to use USB drivers.
