Syslink up gradation error with linux kernel 2.6.37

Naveen Yanamaddi

Hello All,

I was using syslink version syslink_2_20_00_14 with my ezsdk 5514. EZSDK 5514 having file system linux 2.6.37.

Now I want to up grade my syslink to version syslink_2_20_02_20. I have copied the syslink_2_20_02_20 into ezsdk and build the same. Build was happened successfully with out any errors. But When I place the latest syslink.ko in file system and tried booting I am getting following errors. Please help me to get up working.

Naveen,

I'm wondering if the SDK team modified the SysLink release. Sometimes they make internal changes to SysLink or have special makefiles for building it. You might try to download the original SysLink release used by the SDK team and compare it with their copy. If you find any changes, apply the same change to your new download of SysLink.

What device are you on?

Would you provide a link to the SDK you are using.

Ramsey,

Thanks a lot for the reply.

I am working on Netra TI DM8168 EVM.

I am using EZSDK v5.05.01.04 that was release with syslink version syslink_2_20_00_14. But I want to up grade the syslink version to syslink_2_20_02_20 with same EZSDK.

I have copied the syslink_2_20_02_20 copy into my ezsdk and built the sdk, it was properly built. Then I have taken the syslink.ko and copied into EZSDK 5.05.01.14 file system and tried booting the board but it was not booting it fails to load syslink.ko as a result it prompting the error which I have pasted in my first post.
