Linux驱动之内核加载模块过程分析

Linux内核支持动态的加载模块运行：比如insmod first_drv.ko，这样就可以将模块加载到内核所在空间供应用程序调用。现在简单描述下insmod first_drv.ko的过程

1、insmod也是一个用户进程

2、insmod进程从命令行中读取要链接的模块名字：first_drv.ko

3、insmod进程确定模块对象代码所在的文件在系统目录树中的位置，即first_drv.ko文件所在的位置

4、insmod进程从文件系统所在的存储区读入存有模块目标代码的文件

5、insmod调用init_module系统调用。函数将进入内核到达内核函数 sys_init_module，然后sys_init_module函数将模块二进制文件复制到内核，然后由内核完成剩余的任务。

一、前言
对于现在编译的一些module要insmod在系统上时，可能会报各种各样的错误。这些错误仔细研读内核源码，都能找出原因。2.6 内核以前的insmod部分主要依赖于modutils源码包，在用户层基本将工作完成，加载过程参考前一篇文章。2.6 内核以后的做法是将大部分的原来用户级操作纳入内核中来处理，无论是逻辑上还是代码量上都比原来减少了许多，通过busybox中的insmod命令与内核接入。把这套源代码弄明白，就不会出现加载模块时出现的各种各样的错误，可以写一些patch代码，修正这些内核要检查的项，比如vermagic和crc等等。
