Let me know if this does address your question.
The problem is MODPOST complains about undefined symbols:
MODPOST 24 modules
ERROR: "_restgpr_20_x" [net/key/af_key.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "_restgpr_25_x" [net/key/af_key.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "_restgpr_30_x" [net/key/af_key.ko] undefined!
I need a bit more context to try to analyse this.
Where did you expect _restgpr_20_x to be defined.
If in vmlinux then were they present in the
Module.symvers file?
No they aren't there since we I'm not EXPORT_SYMBOL() them. Should I
also be doing EXPORT_SYMBOL?
If in the linked in .o file - could you
see the symbols using objdump.
Yes.
readelf -a:
...
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 113 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
...
5: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 _savegpr_14
6: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 _save32gpr_14
...
etc.
Sorry - not much help right away.
PS. Travelling - do not expect responses until the
weekend.
