top# insmod /lib/modules/2.4.17/misc/cipcb.o
/lib/modules/2.4.17/misc/cipcb.o: unresolved symbol sk_run_filter
/lib/modules/2.4.17/misc/cipcb.o: Note: modules without a GPL compatible license cannot use GPLONLY_ symbols


running CIPE 1.5.2 I get the error above. Should I be bother the
CIPE people with this? Or is this some kernel thingy that needs
to be dealt with?

I remember reading on l-k a few times some stuff about GPLONLY_
but I have no idea what to do now that I've run into whatever
the problem is that is caused by this?

CIPE is a GPL'ed program.

Add

MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

to the cipe code and all will be well

Thanks. I added that and now I'm just left with sk_run_filter
undef'ed without the GPLONLY_ warning.

I've deleted my kernel sources and am starting everything over
from scratch. I checked that 'CONFIG_FILTER' was defined
and all seemed in order, but still got the error.

I read through the last few months of the CIPE archives and there
is no mention of such a problem. Others mention running with
2.4.17, hence my start over.

probably because they use an old modutils package...

As I posted in another email. The above changed helped but I still
had one undef'ed reference.

I removed my linux source tree, rebuilt everything, and now it
works fine.

That's already fixed in the CIPE CVS tree.
