[Xen-devel] pm_idle not exported on x86_64 platform
Hi, Could someone please explain me why pm_idle is not exported on x86_64 platform, unlike it is on i386 (in arch/i386/kernel/process-xen.c)? I have patched the source (arch/x86_64/kernel/process-xen.c) to export this symbol, it works for me, now I am able to load processor.ko module that depends on pm_idle. Am I missing something? Thanks, Janusz _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
It''s exported by x8664_ksyms-xen.c. What kernel are you looking at? -- Keir On 2/1/07 15:16, "Janusz Krzysztofik" <jkrzyszt@tis.icnet.pl> wrote:> Hi, > > Could someone please explain me why pm_idle is not exported on x86_64 > platform, unlike it is on i386 (in arch/i386/kernel/process-xen.c)? > I have patched the source (arch/x86_64/kernel/process-xen.c) to export > this symbol, it works for me, now I am able to load processor.ko module > that depends on pm_idle.

What kernel are you looking at?Debian linux-source-2.6.18 (2.6.18-7) patched with fedora-36252.patch from linux-patch-debian-2.6.18 package, running on debian packaged xen hypervisor 3.0.3 for amd64. I can realize you would rather spend your time on development of the latest xen version, but maybe you can give me an answer if it is safe to export pm_idle symbol in the version I am using in order to be able to make use of processor.ko and thermal.ko modules, or I should expect troubles if I do this.

Sorry for this *SPAM* label, my spamassassin supported incoming mail server is rather restrictive (RCVD_NUMERIC_HELO). Janusz _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
