开发内核模块过程中的问题总结

（1）

问题：交叉编译环境同板子上平台的大小端不一致，导致无法正常编译

原因：内核未正确配置成板子上的平台

解决方法：

cd linux2.6.x

cp arch/arm/configs/ixp4xx_defconfig .config

make zImage 

 

（2）

问题：当插入内核模块时，提示模块需要unloading属性

原因：内核配置时未选择Module Unloading

解决方法：

在Make menuconfig时选上Module Unloading，然后make zImage

出现以上错误，说明在make menuconfig的时候未选择cpu类型为ixp4xx（system type->ixp4xx based），选上就好，注意此时如果不编辑Makefile，将ARCH=arm;CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- 打开，将找不到ixp4xx的选项。

上面的帖子描述了出现下面问题时的解决办法：

解决方法：

更新/usr/include下面的asm,scsi和linux三个链接，执行：
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.23/include/asm-i386 asm
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.23/include/linux linux
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.23/include/scsi scsi
