Sorry that I am a novice in Linux. I don't know how can I put the driver in my source tree and compile everything together. It looks like that there is no option in the menuconfig to choose a specially customed peripheral. So I think I only can include the customed peripheral as a module. Could you please say in a detail on how to do that? > > insmod: unresolved symbol XIo_In32 > > insmod: unresolved symbol XIO_Out32 > >that looks like part of your module is missing. Try to find where thses >functions are defined in there and why that isn't compiled. It's very strange because I have checked the source. In the header file of xio.h, there are the following sentences, /************************** Function Prototypes ******************************/ /* The following functions allow the software to be transportable across * processors which may use memory mapped I/O or I/O which is mapped into a * seperate address space such as X86. The functions are better suited for * debugging and are therefore the default implementation. Macros can instead * be used if USE_IO_MACROS is defined. */ #ifndef USE_IO_MACROS /* Functions */ Xuint8 XIo_In8(XIo_Address InAddress); Xuint16 XIo_In16(XIo_Address InAddress); Xuint32 XIo_In32(XIo_Address InAddress); void XIo_Out8(XIo_Address OutAddress, Xuint8 Value); void XIo_Out16(XIo_Address OutAddress, Xuint16 Value); void XIo_Out32(XIo_Address OutAddress, Xuint32 Value); #else /* The following macros allow optimized I/O operations for memory mapped I/O * Note that the SYNCHRONIZE_IO may be moved by the compiler during * optimization. */ #define XIo_In8(InputPtr) (*(volatile Xuint8 *)(InputPtr)); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; #define XIo_In16(InputPtr) (*(volatile Xuint16 *)(InputPtr)); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; #define XIo_In32(InputPtr) (*(volatile Xuint32 *)(InputPtr)); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; #define XIo_Out8(OutputPtr, Value) \ { (*(volatile Xuint8 *)(OutputPtr) = Value); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; } #define XIo_Out16(OutputPtr, Value) \ { (*(volatile Xuint16 *)(OutputPtr) = Value); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; } #define XIo_Out32(OutputPtr, Value) \ { (*(volatile Xuint32 *)(OutputPtr) = Value); SYNCHRONIZE_IO; } #endif I think these are the defination of XIo_In32 and XIo_Out32. Also, during the compilation, there is no error to complain that "XIo_In32 or XIo_Out32 undeclared". More suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
