Re: Issue with loading a module

In working with a device driver, sometimes
after I rebuild it and reload it, I'll get
system log errors like

'link_elf: symbol yyz undefined'

I assume that it fails to load when you get this message?

Actually, I'll get an entry for all my
exported symbols. If I reboot, it clears
up.

exported from your kernel module?

I'm working on a stock 6.1 kernel.

Has anyone else seen this? I poked around
the mailing lists but didn't find any
like this?

Usually this is due to depending upon symbols that another module
exports, but not having a MODULE_DEPEND line to let one module see
the other module's symbols...
