Thank you for testing the code. Yes I am using the same file and there is no typo. When I insert the module it inserts just fine.<br>
<br>
In this case mystring takes the default value "blah" as seen in log below.<br>
<br>
dmesg:<br>

[ 7907.858948] myintArray[1] = -1<br>
[ 7907.858950] got 0 arguments for myintArray.<br>
<br>
I am wondering if there is an issue with the kernel version or the insmod utility.<br>
<br>
Could you tell me what version of operating system and insmod you are using? I am using a development branch of Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
$ lsb_release -a<br>
No LSB modules are available.<br>
Distributor ID: Ubuntu<br>
Description: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch)<br>
Release: 13.10<br>
Codename: saucy<br>
<br>
$ insmod -V<br>
kmod version 9<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

I have kernel 3.11.0-rc7 and it seems to be working fine. Are you sure the file attached is the correct one or there is no typo? See the output which I got compiling your file and loading it as a module in the attachment.<br>
<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I use the kernel version "3.10.0-4" that came with Ubuntu distribution.<br>
<br>
When I compile the example module I got from LKMPG (hello-5.c) and try to load the driver by passing the module with the following command, it gives the following error:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
# insmod parameter.ko mystring="bebop"<br>
<br>
Error: could not insert module parameter.ko: Unknown symbol in module<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Error in dmesg:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
[ 3687.132110] parameter: Unknown parameter `mystring'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
However, if I insert the module without any parameters, it gets inserted just fine.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
# insmod parameter.ko<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I am attaching the source code for reference. Kindly let me know what could be done.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
