Using insmod on android emulator console

[shilpa]

Hi,

I am Shilpa.I am working on android emulator and the related stuff.
have written a simple "hello world" kernel module.I am compiling this
kernel module using ARM cross compiler and I have created a makefile
which assists the compilation once i give the "make" command.
Now, I am able to successfully compile the kernel module producing
the .ko file. I would like to copy this into android emulator and
execute from the same.Hence for the same purpose I have initially
pushed the file into the emulator using the adb command.
inside the emulator console, when I give the command as insmod
hello.ko it produces me this kind of message.
"insmod: init_module 'hello.ko' failed (Function not implemented)"

Hence I was curious to know if we can insert modules on android
emulator console?
Can you pls provide me some inputs regarding the same?

Thanks,
Shilpa

Hi,

You cannot insmod a module unless you have a custom kernel
with "Enable Loadable module support" option turned-on for Android
emulator. The default kernel image for the emulator shipped as part of
SDK does not support "dynamic loadable modules" and hence you would
encounter the error "Function not implemented"

Warm Regards,
