My question is how do people build modules which are specific to a
particular architecture on UML ? Is it possible ?
Sure!
Are you compiling the kernel modules from the host system? If not,
try to do it.
The exact procedure is the following:
# mount -o loop rootfs loop_dir/
# cd /uml/src/linux
# make modules ARCH=um
# make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/uml/loop_dir ARCH=um
# umount /uml/loop_dir
Then, boot the UML again.
Hi Flavio,
I have done that step and my UML kernel boots fine. My question is in
UML environment what will the ARCH resolve to ? will it be um or x86 ?
Thanks -

Flavio
It will um. Actualy UML is a port of the Linux kernel as a normal Intel
Linux process.
