Dear All,
I have developed a kernel module consists of one source file that sends and
receives message to the user space. I have spitted the source code in two
files, and now I am trying to develop kernel module from these source
files. After compiling and linking without any problems, I insmod the
module but I didn’t see any of the printk() I wrote, in fact, the module
can be inserted and removed, but it does nothing. Code is in the attached
file zipped file.
I tried many things , e.g., link <https://paguilar.org/?p=7>1, link2
<https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-kernel-70/kernel-module-with-multiple-source-files-not-initializing-886190/>,
and link3
<https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/msm/+/android-msm-dory-3.10-kitkat-wear/Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>
etc.
but nothings worked out.
I also used *nm* to inspect the module, but, as expected, there was no
signs of "__init and __exit" functions can in the output.
