No it is not the requirement, when I downloaded the source "4.0.5-rc7+" was latest. Is there any problem with 4.0.5-rc7+? Thanks, Madhu On Thu, Sep 29, 2016 at 4:54 PM, Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> wrote:

Hi All,
While inserting a kernel module, insmod is failing with following error.
insmod: error inserting 'page_walk.ko': Invalid module format.
I verified the modinfo of "page_walk.ko" it is showing version magic as : 4.0.5_rc7+ SMP mod_unload modversions 686
Is the kernel version that you are currently running also 4.0.5-rc7+? That is a requirement :)
what does "mod_unload" mean here?
You have enabled the ability to unload modules.
Also look in your kernel log for any specific error messages when trying to load a module, it usually will be more verbous than the insmod program itself.
good luck,
