Hello Hackers,I am working on learning to write FreeBSD drivers; however, I have some practice writing IOKit drivers for MacOSX (they are entirely different I know!). The code I am working with can be found here: http://pastebin.com/m2bbb393c and I am getting the error: dontpanic# kldload ./hello.ko kldload: can't load ./hello.ko: Exec format error dmesg reads: dontpanic# kldload ./hello.ko kldload: can't load ./hello.ko: Exec format error and finally uname -a: FreeBSD dontpanic.union.edu 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #1 r198859: Wed Feb 10 09:59:54 EST 2010 [email protected]:/usr/obj/usr/src_klog/sys/DONTPANIC amd64 any information pointing me to being able to load this driver would be greatly appreciated.
That error is a sort of catch-all. But the kernel linker should put some more specific information out in the kernel console/dmseg.
so 'dmesg' may help you if you have something like a bad symbol.
