EZSDK seems not to be updating /lib/modules/X.X.XX/modules.* -- missing syslink ?!

Hi All,

In rebuilding the kernel and modules (using 'make linux' followed by 'make linux_install'), although the modules I've added are built and copied across to the install directory successfully, the new files in /lib/modules/2.6.37 (eg: modules.dep, modles.alias, modules.*) don't seem to be correct ?!

Particularly, entries for 'syslink.ko' are no-longer present which results in 'modprobe' failing to find+load syslink (example below).

Am I missing a step? I've tried "make syslink; make syslink_insall ... as well as make all; make install" with no success.

example (using default filesystem before rebuild)

# modprobe syslink
SysLink version: 2.10.03.20
Syslink module .....

#

example (using same default filesystem as above, but have copied -R built/lib/modules /lib/modules)

# modprobe syslink
FATAL: Module syslink not found.

  • Hi Leon,

    Are you using EZSDK? If yes, which version?

    For each module, you should go back to the host, rebuild it, and replace the file with the one from your EXEC_DIR. For more info, check

    ${EZSDK}/docs/DM816x_EZ_Software_Developers_Guide.pdf, section Creating your own Linux kernel image
