Are you sure netdev_boot_setup_check() returns 0 on *un*successful return? That's what the ! seems to suggest. > } > strcpy(my_netdev.name, DEV_NAME); > if((result = register_netdev(&my_netdev))) > printk(KERN_ERR "NETDEV: Error registering device"); > printk("NETDEV: Device registered successfully"); Both of the printk()'s above will execute on error. How about adding braces and returning result on error? > return 0; > } > > static void __exit remove_dev(void) > { > unregister_netdev(&my_netdev); > } > int init_mdev(struct net_device *dev) > { > printk("INIT"); > return 0; > } > module_init(init_dev); > module_exit(remove_dev); > It seems that your e-mail client (the Onet WebUI) keeps malforming your indentation. This link might come in handy: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.10/process/email-clients.html?highlight=email, I'm sure more people will join the discussion once your style looks more approachable. I'm not much into network devices myself, but could you maybe try and find which call hangs your init function e.g. with printk()'s before each call? I believe your net_device structure might be incomplete. Once you find the problematic call, a cross-reference source code search engine like lxr.free-electrons.com/ could help you understand which struct net_device members might need your attention.
