Yes, there may be minor performance penalty but that may be irrelevant for you if it lets you build and load SMP modules on that machine. With a UP kernel running, you will be able to build SMP modules but not load them. -- Khalid Khalid Aziz Linux Development Laboratory (970)898-9214Hewlett-Packard [EMAIL PROTECTED]Fort Collins, CO - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Configure your kernel for SMP and do a 'make dep', then compile your module. -- Rafael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
SMP module compilation on UP?
Hi, Is it possible to build an SMP module on a machine running a UP kernel (or vice versa)? We of course get unresolved symbols during module load due to the smp prefix on the ksyms, and haven't seen how to get around it. (Defining __SMP__ does not cut it, though I believe this used to work a while ago). Please reply to me as well as to the list.
