Imagine you have a Linux kernel image for an Android phone, but you don’t have the corresponding source, nor do you have the corresponding kernel headers. Imagine that kernel has module support (fortunately), and that you’d like to build a module for it to load. There are several good...

I'm currently trying to build one of linux drivers as module (pmod oled driver from Digilent). My board is Zedboard, and I want to make work OLED screen that is onboard. I have chosen Analog Devices kernel tree, because of additional drivers that ADV add

After the module is built, the next step is loading it into the kernel. As we've already pointed out, insmod does the job for you. The program loads the module code and data into the kernel, which, in turn, performs a function similar to that of ld, in that it links any unresolved...
