You are right. My module has been compiled into the kernel though. But when the kernel starts I do not see it registered.
This is what I did 1)saved my module .c file in drivers/crypto/ 2)edited drivers/kernel/Makefile adding obj-$(CONFIG_CRYPTO_MYMODULE) += mymodule.o 3)edited the drivers/crypto/Kconfig adding config CRYPTO_MYMODULE tristate "My module test" help Enable to test it 4)make menuconfig => setting my module to be built into the kernel Thank you, Luca On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 6:55 AM, Robert P.
