[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1348442] Re: Unable to compile proprietary kernel driver under ARM64 Ubuntu 14.04
You are not permitted to link to GPL only symbols if your module is not
GPL, the error there is telling you you are trying to do exactly that:
FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module test.ko uses GPL-only symbol
'xen_dma_ops'
Either one has to work with the upstream contributor to relax that
symbol to EXPORT_SYMBOL, or you need to find an alternative.
If you do not expect your device to encounter systems running on XEN you
could likely short circut this by defining xen_dma_ops as NULL. before
you include that header:
#define xen_dma_ops NULL
Though if you do that you should also check for xen_initial_domain() in
your init (if you can call that) and abort if true.
That said, it seems rather unfortuanate that those ops being _GPL
renders he whole DMA infratructure useless. It is worth approaching
whoever committed that and asking for that symbol to be relaxed.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1348442] Re: Unable to compile proprietary kernel driver under ARM64 Ubuntu 14.04
The dependencies on xen_dma_ops were introduced in the commit below:
commit c7e9bc548325f19635e7ac7cd5f3ec587228952e
Author: Stefano Stabellini stefano.stabell...@eu.citrix.com
Date: Fri Oct 18 16:01:26 2013 +
arm/xen: get_dma_ops: return xen_dma_ops if we are running as
xen_initial_domain
and the ops themselves in:
commit 83862ccfc0a03212fde43b4ac29c28381828768b
Author: Stefano Stabellini stefano.stabell...@eu.citrix.com
Date: Thu Oct 10 13:40:44 2013 +
xen/arm,arm64: enable SWIOTLB_XEN
So at least it seems to be the same person here.

MODULE_LICENSE(Proprietary)) for ARM64 under Ubuntu 14.04 results in
the following link error:
