I get the following error when I try to mount_smbfs a LAN file share
as root with 5.3-RELEASE and a GENERIC kernel, both cvsup-ed and
compiled this past weekend:
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: mount_smbfs: Undefined symbol "vfsisloadable"

I can't find a whole lot of information about this error.  But
apparently, "vfsisloadable" is an outdated parameter that should no
longer be referenced in the source.

The only other reference I found to this error was a kernel that was
missing the proper support, but it seemed that a GENERIC kernel would
take care of that.

Any ideas on how to verify that my system has got whatever mount_smbfs
may need to operate properly, or how to remedy the error?

Thank you,

Did you do a kldstat to see if smbfs.ko is there?  It is no longer in
GENERIC.



Hi Jason,

I too found that link, which is where I got the idea that
"vfsisloadable" was an outdated parameter, but I saw that loading the
smb_fs module generated an error for that user, so I didn't follow up
on that information.

I'm glad you pointed this out though, as loading the kernel module
works for me.

But without your response, how would I ever have known this?  It's
certainly not mentioned in UPDATING, and the error output was not
helpful.  Where would I have found this information?

Thanks,
~John

I just found it with google by cutting and pasting. I then did some reading. I find the archive search at freebsd.org kind of sucks. You could also try google.com/bsd. This was also on the current mailing list. I was thinking about submitting something to the doc project about stuff I find, but in the past they have emailed me back showing me it was already in them(usaully in a faq). So I haven't sent to many new items to them. Also in the past I have done a diff between my kernel conf and GENERIC to see the changes between updates, but I have learned most of it well enough to spot most things now. I also don't build in anything I can load.

I guess you would have never have know with out many hours of poking around your system, but thats what these lists are for right? :)
