Subject: Insmod gives unsresolved symbol
Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2001 00:17:44 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011106081744.40294.qmail@web12208.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hi 

I am trying to write a device driver which calls
certain functions/variables from the kernel 
(e.g. ipv4_explicit_null from
/usr/src/linux/net/mpls/mpls_init.c )

But when I try to insert the module using insmod it
gives me an error saying unresolved symbol
ipv4_explicit_null

thinking the kernel did not export the said symbol  I
added EXPORT_SYMBOL(ipv4_explicit_null) in the file
mpls_init.c 
Now I can see the symbol in System.map
but my problem still persists. 

Am I exporting symbols properly or is there anything
else that needs to be done .

please advise 
thanks in anticipation,
amit
