[内核补丁] 解决2.6.29内核上加载模块出现"unknown relocation: 40"

我使用s3c2410+linux2.6.25.20+arm-linux-gcc4.3.3(使用过其它较低版本3.4.5则不会出现这个问题)加载fat.ko等fat文件系统模块时候会报错,并不是全部都报错,某些简单的如led.ko不会。

从上网站中获取补丁,补丁内容如下,按照修改内核问题解决:

#   [ARM] 5428/1: Module relocation update for R_ARM_V4BX
#
#   It would seem when building kernel modules with modern binutils
#   (required by modern GCC) for ARM v4T targets (specifically observed
#   with the Samsung 24xx SoC which is an 920T) R_ARM_V4BX relocations
#   are emitted for function epilogues.
#
#   This manifests at module load time with an "unknown relocation: 40"
#   error message.
#
#   The following patch adds the R_ARM_V4BX relocation to the ARM kernel
#   module loader. The relocation operation is taken from that within the
#   binutils bfd library.
