Subject: No symbol version for PROM_KMALLOC1 in kernel 2.6.26

Hi all,

I am trying to get my driver working on 2.6.26 kernel. This driver
works fine in 2.6.17 kernel.

I have a glue KLM(kernel loadable module) & the main driver KLM.   The
Glue module exposes a set of API's which the main driver KLM uses.

I have a glue layer which exposes a function called "PROM_KMALLOC1".
This function is exported using "EXPORT_SYMBOL(PROM_KMALLOC1)".  I
load the glue KLM and then load the main driver KLM.
The reference to PROM_KMALLOC1 in my main driver is giving me the
following error.

be:  no symbol version for PROM_KMALLOC1
be: Unknown symbol PROM_KMALLOC1

Is there a different way of exporting symbols in 2.6.26 kernel ?   I
don't know what does symbol version mean ?  Can anyone explain me
please.

i did
[root@...alhost ~]# cat /proc/kallsyms | grep PROM_KMALLOC1
e22352d4 r __ksymtab_PROM_KMALLOC1      [glue]
e22358ba r __kstrtab_PROM_KMALLOC1      [glue]
e223542c r __kcrctab_PROM_KMALLOC1      [glue]
e204d048 T PROM_KMALLOC1        [glue]
d8bc05b7 a __crc_PROM_KMALLOC1  [glue]

~Cheers
Prasanna
