Hello,
I was stuck in this scenario:
1. kernel 2.1.xx + modutils 2.1.xx
2. klogd 1.3-0 from RedHat 3.0.3
3. sysklogd-1.3-9.src.rpm which does not build under 2.1.xx
4. this in /var/log/messages:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Apr 19 11:59:56 redrose syslogd 1.3-0: restart.
Apr 19 11:59:57 redrose kernel: klogd 1.3-0, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
Apr 19 11:59:57 redrose kernel: Error in symbol table input.
Apr 19 11:59:57 redrose kernel: Cannot find map file.
-------------------------------------------------------------
I tried deleting the top two lines in System.map as someone
suggested a while ago but nothing changed. klogd -d won't
output anything at the relevant lines of code unless it's
compiled with VERBOSE_DEBUGGING (catch-22 !).
Recompiling with the patch applied (which basically looks for
'addr' in struct module_info instead of struct module) gets
--------------------------------------------------------------
Apr 29 19:19:36 redrose syslogd 1.3-3: restart.
Apr 29 19:19:37 redrose kernel: klogd 1.3-3, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
Apr 29 19:19:38 redrose kernel: Loaded 3850 symbols from /usr/src/linux/System.map.
Apr 29 19:19:38 redrose kernel: Symbols match kernel version 2.1.36.
Apr 29 19:19:38 redrose kernel: No module symbols loaded.
--------------------------------------------------------------
which would appear to work. Since I'm *very* far from having
understood what I've done, please let me know whether I've
done something dumb, or neutral, or I (whoa !) got it right.
...or, of course, if there is a newer RPM or what which builds
under 2.1.36 !
Cheers,
