When i try to insmod the "ppp_async" module it complains about "unresolved
symbol tty_register_ldisc" and therefore refuses to load.
After looking at the changes being introduced in 2.4.10-pre I was able to fix
the problem:
The problem is caused by the fact, that in 2.4.10-pre* the line
EXPORT_SYMBOL(tty_register_ldisc);
has been _removed_ from 'net/netsyms.c'
after readding this line (i added the "EXPORT_SYMBOL(tty_register_ldisc);"
right under the tty_register_ldisc declaration in "drivers/char/tty_io.c",
but "net/netsyms.c" should work too) and recompiling everything now works
fine for me. (ppp_async now loads correctly again)
Therefore I recommend you to readd the
EXPORT_SYMBOL(tty_register_ldisc);
line whereever you consider it the right place (e.g. drivers/char/tty_io.c
etc)
