I'm new to free-pascal, and have searched for a few hours without
finding an answer to my question. I hope someone on the list could
please help point me in the right direction.
I've been using a couple of encryption/decryption units that are
written in Pascal that I've been using in a userspace networking
tool for some time. For performance reasons, I want to move those
routines out of userspace and implement an iptables match (Linux
kernel module) and invoke the pascal routine. After much trial and
error, I have successfully compiled a Linux kernel module, my
fpc-generated .o file, system.o and objpas.o together. However,
when I load the module, the kernel refuses it because it contains
common symbols, and suggests that I recompile with the "-fno-common"
flag (gcc flag?). After some research, nm system.o shows 30 or so
symbols marked as ' C ', for common. Is there any way for me to
tell the fpc compiler to re-compile system.o and initialize the 30
or so symbols so that they won't be marked as "common"?
There is no option for it.
