You won't require the code, since I have just added printk(KERN_ALERT "RAJENDRA in get_stats\n") after the declaration of int i in static struct net_device_stats* get_stats(struct net_device *dev), which is standard function in source code /drivers/net/loopback.c I built it. I get a loopback.o My objective in adding this printk statement was trying to see whether this gets called, by executing ifconfig or netstat -i. I checked in /var/log/messages and the output of printk statement didn't get logged. What might have gone wrong? How am I supposed to test it. However the most important question is since it being a driver, shouldn't this be a loopback.ko?
How did you compile BTW? Didn't you compile the whole kernel?
TIA.
