Re: standard library pow function needed from kext

Actually, the code using pow and other floating point operations is compiled into a separate library, which in turn is linked to the kext. The problem is that when loading the kext, I get an unknown symbol error for the pow function. The root cause to this problem appears to be that there is not a static libm on the system. Is this correct? Are there only dynamic versions of the math and other libs? And if so, can a dynamic library be linked to a kext? Is there a linker option to specify code from a dynamic library be pulled into a generated program/kext as would be done with a static library? Any other suggestions? why do you need pow? It is has been said before on this list and on the others you should not use floating point numbers in the kernel.
