[Q] Can't load cifs.ko

---

Hi guys!
I would like to have cifs support on LG Optimus One but since I have not found any cifs.ko module for our kernel I compiled it using LG source code and android-ndk-r4b.

The problem is that when I try to load it with "insmod cifs.ko" i have this error:

insmod: init_module 'cifs.ko' failed (No such file or directory)

(obviously cifs.ko is in the working directory, i'm root and I mounted /system as RW)

This is the dmesg log:

<4>[20460.381143] cifs: Unknown symbol slow_work_register_user
<4>[20460.383240] cifs: Unknown symbol slow_work_enqueue

What can I do?

I am attaching the cifs.ko file so someone can try.

Here a thread with the same problem for cifs. It seems that something is missing, such as support for some cpu governor. What kernel/ROM are you using?

there is no module attached to previous post.

Sorry, I thought I had attached the file.

I'm using Official Optimus One ROM and ThunderG-Kernel-4a30c33.

I've tried and I got the same error. I think that some requirement is missing in the kernel.

Where do you get this module? Is it for other phone?

No, this module is compiled by me from this kernel source (for Optimus One)

I also tried with the kernel source released directly by LG... with same result!

Lo condividerete?

Grazie in anticipo

Ciao! Sono riuscito a compilare cifs.ko ma non funziona... bisogna fare qualche altra modifica al kernel ma non ho capito come farla!

Hi! I managed to compile cifs.ko but does not work ... must make some other changes to the kernel but I have not figured out how to do it!
