Subject: 2.6.17-mm3: segvs in modpost with out-of-tree modules
Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2006 09:51:11 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44A2B37F.4030500@goop.org> (raw)

I'm seeing SIGSEGVs in modpost when compiling the out-of-tree madwifi 
driver:

    /bin/sh: line 1: 3701 Segmentation fault scripts/mod/modpost -m -a
    -i /home/jeremy/hg/linux-2.6/Module.symvers -I

    /svn/madwifi-ng/net80211/wlan_xauth.o

The backtrace is:

#0  0x4e8017da in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1  0x080491a7 in export_no (s=0x0) at modpost.c:209

    at modpost.c:1312
#3  0x0804b88b in main (argc=21, argv=0xbff5def4) at modpost.c:1390

I haven't really looked at yet, but I was hoping someone had already 
tracked it down.
