site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Thanks; that took me through the compile and link stages. Loading the thing still doesn't work, though. I worked though a number of issues reported by kextload -t. I kept getting an unknown symbol "_kmod_info" --- couldn't figure out what it wants, so for now I just added a kmod_info_t kmod_info; into the driver. It will probably need some initialization, though... If I take it out I now get a "does not contain kernel extension code" message; don't remember how I got the unknown symbol thing. In any case, if I leave it in I'm getting a bit further ahead. I'm now at a stage where kextload -t no longer gives real error messages, but instead I get kextload: extension /Users/stieber/MacOS-Bundles/WTG.kext appears to be valid kld(): Undefined symbols: .constructors_used .destructors_used __ZTI11OSMetaClass __ZTI9IOService __ZTVN10__cxxabiv120__si_class_type_infoE and then it fails again. I grepped through every file in /usr, /System and /Developer for the ZTI11OSMetaClass symbol, with no result... There was another problem before, though: the loader was complaining about me using dynamic libaries with rld interface. When I added -static to the linker, the linker complained about that being incompatible with -framework. So I removed the -framework specifications from the linker, which in turn might cause the symbols to be missing ("IOService" looks like it's part of the IOKit framework, for example). It seems I can either get those missing symbols, or a complaint about the executable format. I used to have "-framework IOKit -framework System" in the linker call; currently the calls are The lipo call is an old thing in my build environment from when I tried to ompile the normal software (not the kext) for both architectures, which didn't work (I can only make i386 binaries on the intel mac and ppc binaries on the ppc mac). It's still there since it didn't seem to cause problems, and at some point I want to look into that again.
