hello,

I am using a mips cross compiler=20 (mips-linux-gcc, version 2.95.3) to build my driver

I am using some floating point = operations in a=20 wireless lan driver for a mips platform in ucLinux, When i load the = driver I am=20 getting unresolved symbols

>
> insmod: unresolved symbol = dptoli
>=20 insmod: unresolved symbol dpmul
> insmod: unresolved symbol = litodp

And somebody told me that we cannot use = floating=20 point operations in kernel code, but i desperately need to use floating = point=20 operations.

please tell me how to use floating = point operations=20 in kernel code.

thanks & regards

durai
