Yup. But you can pass it explicitly to the linker: LDFLAGS_MODULE=--build-id=0x$(PKG_SOURCE_VERSION) where PKG_SOURCE_VERSION is the git hash. > I think for what you're trying to do, it might be better to use > something else.

Well the nice thing about this is that it requires very little change in other places: The facility to export it in sysfs is already in the kernel, and it's a one-line change to the build invocation (as above) to get it included. If you're opposed to adding this change, I guess that adding a custom note section to the module might be an alternative way to go about it; if I can figure out how to do that... -Toke _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
