Hi Rusty,
I'm trying to get VMware working, and unfortunately new insmod
is not able to load generated module. It died at line 1000 of
kernel/module.c, because of used.core_size > mod->core_size:
INIT=0/0 CORE=34252/34228
Do you have any idea what's wrong with generated vmmon.o?
After I did "strip -R .note vmmon.o", module was insmod-dable.
Unfortunately lsmod now says
"KBUILD_MODNAME 34220 0 [permanent]", although there is
no explanation in dmesg why it was marked [permanent] :-(
If you are interested, generated vmmon.o is available at
http://vana.vc.cvut.cz/vmmon.o (if vana.vc.cvut.cz is alive)
(and yes, I fixed KBUILD_MODNAME module name here already...
but with vmmon in .modulename it does not die so spectacullary).
And if we are talking about module names, I'm using
"insmod -o dummy0 dummy.o" & "insmod -o dummy1 dummy.o" to create
two dummy interfaces. What should I do now? Compile two dummy.o,
each with different module name?
Thanks,
Petr Vandrovec
