Topic: Compiling kernel module for kernel 2.6.29 (Page 1 of 1)

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Feel free to move.

I am trying to compile a module here is wat i have

Module:

int init_module(void)
{
	printk(KERN_INFO "Hello world 1.\n");


	return 0;
}

void cleanup_module(void)
{
	printk(KERN_INFO "Goodbye world 1.\n");
}

and this is my makefile:

obj-m += hello-1.o

all:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules

clean:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean

the makefile axecutes without erros but i do not get a binary file (.o or .ko)

any ideas?

No idea- never wrote anything in the kernel. I compiled the old broadcom wifi drivers, but that was ages ago..

what are you trying to do?

Keep me posted- I'm really curious as to where your bytes are going. Maybe you can run gcc in verbose mode?

I am not trying to achieve anything. Only playing around, but not very succesfull.

ok fixed it. it looks ,like a non printable symbol got caught in my makefile. I rewrote it and it worked fine.
