Hi all,

I have a problem integrating bluez into a cross complied kernel version 2.4.20. The target is a arm7tdmi and I used the latest patch for that kernel. The kernel compilation (bluez as modules) works fine and does not report any errors. However when I want to insmod the bluez.o I get:

Using bluez.o
insmod: unresolved symbol __do_softirq

Well, I am not even sure it is a bluez or a kernel problem. The symbol __do_softirq is not exported (checked with "cat ksyms | grep __do_softirq").

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?! I did not find an answer to this in the mail list archive.

Thanks in advance
Jens

I am no ARM expert so I can't help you, but from a quick search through the kernel source I saw the __do_softirq is specific for the ARM arch. Try to post this on an ARM mailing list.
