kmupdate giving error

Sandesh Chopdekar — Wed, 03 Dec 2003 07:29:33 GMT

Hi,
I am working on making an already existing
module as a dlkm. Afetr making code changes.
while trying to register it using config I
got following error
[root@ws1] /usr/sbin/config -M npp -u
Generating module: npp...
Requesting loadable module update...
kmmodreg: Could not obtain the boot kernel path
kmupdate: Module npp registration failed.

Got similar result with "mk_kernel -M npp"
It's a pseudo driver.
I don't know why kmupdate is giving error.
I am running this command from /stand directory

Thanks,
Sandesh

Could be the path not correct.
When is not specified assumes that the kernel is located at /stand/vmunix. If your machine is booted with a test kernel, say /stand/vmunix_test to see listing pass the kernel. Run kmpath to identify the kernel the host is booted with.

Sandesh,

the kmupdate command calls "kmpath -c"... and this should typically return "/stand/dlkm". Please run that command manually and report what happens. Do you see messages like "DLKM is not initialized" in your dmesg output?

Best regards...
Dietmar.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.

kmpath didn't o/p anything on the system
[root@mac1] kmpath
[root@mac1] echo $?
3
[root@mac1]

from errno.h
#define ESRCH 3 /* No such process */

Is there some problem with the OS version I
am running ?
Here's the uname o/p
[root@mac1] uname -a
HP-UX mac1 B.11.11 U 9000/785 2001031186 [root@mac1]

[root@mac1] ls -ltr /stand/vmunix
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 24876440 Dec 3 11:46 /stand/vmunix*
[root@mac1]

Is it searching for vmunix_test ?

Thanks,
Sandesh

Nothing in dmesg? Could you try to run kmpath through tusc? Maybe the modadm(MOD_TY_NONE, MOD_C_KPATH,...) syscall fails for some reason.

Best regards...
Dietmar.

Hi Dietmar,
Sorry to miss out dmeg

Here's the demsg output

WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized
WARNING: modadm: DLKM is not initialized

One more thing - The h/w is PA-RISC

Here's the tusc output -> your doubt seems
to be true - modadm did gave an error.

Do I need to set some env variables ?

Sandesh,

sorry for the late response... Friday I was on FTO.

Obviously it looks like your DLKM subsystem is not initialized. Initialization happens normally during bootup. You should be able to resolve that problem by re-building the kernel and it's symbol table before rebooting:

# mk_kernel
# kmupdate
# shutdown -r 0

Best regards...
Dietmar.
