Re: Problem Exporting Symbol

OK, the source module was pointed out to me (arch/ppc/mm/fault.c).  The
problem is that Shiv is targeting the 8260, but va_to_pte() is only defined
for 8xx or CONFIG_GT64260_ETH.  Shiv doesn't say if he has
CONFIG_GT64260_ETH defined, I'm guessing not.

The code in question:

#if defined(CONFIG_8xx) || defined(CONFIG_GT64260_ETH)

/* The pgtable.h claims some functions generically exist, but I
  * can't find them......
  */
pte_t *va_to_pte(unsigned long address)

Hi All,

      I am trying to write SPI driver for 8260, based on the SPI driver for
the MPC860 that I got from this list. I am trying to export the symbol
'va_to_pte', for the driver module, in the kernel.

      I included this in arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c, by using the
EXPORT_SYMTAB(va_to_pte) function. But when I tried to rebuild the kernel
(make zImage), it keeps coming back with the following error:

arch/ppc/kernel/kernel.o(__ksymtab+0x0370): undefined reference to
'va_to_pte'

     I have exported other symbols, by following similar procedure. Is there
something that I am missing.

      I am running Linux kernel 2.4.2. Any inputs will be very helpful.

  Thanks and Regards,
    Shiv
