Okay! Next patches will be the simple tasks. Also, I couldn't find the tutorial you mentioned for compiling, can you help me out some there?
I think the tutorial mentioned is kernel newbies First patch tutorial and under section Make a driver change: http://kernelnewbies.org/Outreachyfirstpatch#head-816e6eef0008340eab7d542c3f... there is instruction how to compile your changes:
Compile your changes:
Recompile your kernel, by running make (with an optional -jN flag): make -j2
Hi Ksenija,
Thanks for the help. I'm already doing this, I was under the impression that Arnd was mentioning something other than this. I could be wrong.
Are you sure that you have a .o file for the code you are working on? And if you do, are you compiling the whole kernel? Maybe the problem is related to linking?
