Hi kashish,

Sending to the whole list this time...

Hi,
There is no licensing mistake because I already included MODULE_LICENSE(
"GPL" ); in my module.

I also verified the exported symbol. There is an entry for the exported
symbol in kallsyms.

Is there any other reason of getting this kind of error?
module : no symbol version for function_name

I re-read the error, and it seems that the problem isn't that the
symbol is missing, but rather that the symbol version is missing.

This talks abit about symbol versioning:
