Hi, at the moment I am packaging a Linux module as an RPM archive.
Therefor I would like to remove some of the not exported/needed symbols (like e.g. static functions or constants) from the Linux module. What is the best way to do this with v2.6 using the kbuild architecture. I have tried e.g. to remove all symbols starting with "telos" from the module like this (after kbuild): strip -w -K '!telos*' -K 'telosi2c_usb_driver' telosi2c_linux.ko When I try to load such a module, insmod dies with a segmentation fault or the complete kernel dies (with "invalid operand: 0000"). What is the reason for this problem? What is the correct way using kbuild to remove some symbols? cu, Marco ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
