Hello guys!! Thanks for the answers! You are right Vladmir, if I edit the Module.symvers file of the dependent modues and put the symbols the it need, from the other module Module.symvers file it works well. I have tried modprobe with modules in kernel tree and works well, but I could not do the same with out-of tree modules, I think that is just a configuration issue of modprobe.

Hello guys!
I'm working with three out-of-tree kernel modules, one of them export symbols used by the others. At compile time, MODPOST warns about undefined symbols, which are defined on the first module and used in the second and third modules. When I try to load the modules "insmod" returns the error "Unknown Symbol
in
module" for those symbols warned by MODPOST.
How can I to compile several out-of-tree modules which depends on one another and make to the dependant modules look for the needed symbols on the directories of the modules which have the symbols?
Use modprobe, not insmod, and you will be fine.
