Hi! I get the message "kldload: unexpected relocation type 10" many times (som many the ringbuffer gets full and the first message I see is truncated) when loading a 3-rd part kernel module (nnpfs [1]). Relocation type 10 seems to be R_X86_64_32, "Add 32 bit zero extended symbol value", which sys/amd64/amd64/elf_machdep.c doesn't support. On the other hand R_X86_64_32S, "Add 32 bit sign extended symbol value", which sounds quite similar, is supported. Should support for R_X86_64_32 be added, or should I try to "fix" the kernel module so it doesn't use that relocation type? [1] nnpfs is a kernel to userland interface for file systems, used by arla, an AFS client. http://www.stacken.kth.se/projekt/arla/ --=20 Rasmus Kaj --+-- rasmus@kaj.se --+-- http://www.stacken.kth.se/~kaj/ Var glad!
