I tried to compile a module to Android Dev Phone 1. I tested it with a
sample hello module. I used the kernel source 2.6.25 and cross compile
toolchain arm-eabi-4.2.1. Such as:

CROSS_COMPILE=.../prebult/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.2.1/bin/arm-
eabi-

I added the additional string to the extraversion variable at the
beginning of Makefile. Then I recompiled the module and called the
command "modinfo hello.ko", it showed as "vermagic: 2.6.25-01843-
gfea26b0 mod_unload ARMv5". Then I copied the hello.ko into the phone.
But when I used the following insmod command:

"./busybox insmod hello.ko"

I got an error message: " insmod: cannot insert 'hello.ko': invalid
module format (-1): Exec format error"
Then I used dmesg, it showed: " hello: version magic '2.6.25-01843-
gfea26b0 mod_unload ARMv5 ' should be '2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 preempt
mod_unload ARMv6".

What is the "preempt mod_unload ARMv6"? How to change from ARMv5 to
ARMv6? How to add the "preempt" version.

By the way, when I called " cat /proc/version " for the phone, it
showed as " Linux version 2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 (android-
bu...@apa27.mtv.corp.google.com) (gcc version 4.2.1) #6 PREEMPT Mon
Oct 6 14:13:36 PDT 2008"

How to set "#6 PREEMPT" ?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Best Regards,

Jeff
