Re: How to make sure device drivers are generated

Greetings-I did not see a reply to my message below, and I wonder if I missed a 
reply. Also, when I logged into the admin page, I see a bounce score of 1 for 
my account. But I receive emails from the list. Would you advise what might be 
the likely issue behind the bounce score?

 After I tried the session I described below, I issued make mrproper, and then 
enabled loadable modules by issuing the following command: 
make VARIANT_DEFCONFIG=msm8974_sec_hlte_spr_defconfig msm8974_sec_defconfig 
SELINUX_DEFCONFIG=selinux_defconfig gconfig
And double clicked the loadable modules and saved and closed the gconfig 
window. I then issued make only. ( not make all )but I get the following error:
arch/arm/mm/proc-syms.c:21:1: error: 'cpu_tima_set_pte_ext' undeclared here 
(not in a function)make[1]: *** [arch/arm/mm/proc-syms.o] Error 1make: *** 
[arch/arm/mm] Error 2
 I googled for the error message, but nothing comes up. I do have the output of 
make for the above, if you want to see it, I would be glad to post it on 
pastbin.

 GreetingsI am trying to compile some source containing the linux kernel and 
some other open source code. It seems to me like I can get a successful zImage, 
but I am not able to make any modules. From reading the Makefile, it is my 
understanding that I should be able to make modules just by issuing make. From 
looking at the make output, it seems like the object files for the device 
drivers are built. I am not sure what the problem is. I have put the session 
output as well as output of my config script at the link below:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to see why I am not able to 
generate .ko files. I am a novice, and I am going through a great content, 
which has helped me get this far. I have read the section that talks about 
generating device drivers. I sincerely hope and look forward to some great 
advice here, and would be glad to post any other content which might be 
required to address my question.I hope that someone here would review the 
output, and let me know what else I  need to post please. Sean
