Subject: adding device driver kernel module for xen/linux
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2006 12:54:39 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43CC869F.2050400@telkom.net.id> (raw)

Hi,

I wanted to add a kernel module (bcm5700, device driver for Broadcom 
network adapter) to linux 2.6, xen-3.0.0. Is it possible to use the 
kernel module (source) as-is, without modifications, or do I need to 
edit the module source code to be Xen-specific?

I noticed that the files tg3.c and tg3.h on linux-2.6.12-xen is the same 
as the one on pristine-linux-2.6.12, so presumably, no change is needed. 
However, using bcm5700 module on linux-2.6.12-xen kernel doesn't work, 
while using bcm5700 on native linux (on the same machine) works.

Regards,

Fajar
