I'm trying to compile lirc: Linux Infrared Remote Control
I know this list is not really meant to answer any and all software
problems, but the lirc mailling list isn't very responsive. I've only had a
few replies from users; mentioning that they ran into the same problem and
opted for no longer using a hardened system, changing their kernel, or
whatever. I'm hoping there is a real solution.
I'm basically asking for a theoretical answer, but anyone with actual hands
on lirc compiling experience is of course very welcome with their advice.
When compiling the module which communicates with /dev/ttyS0, these warnings
fly by:
*** Warning: "lirc_unregister_plugin"
[/usr/src/lirc/lirc-0.8.0/drivers/lirc_serial/lirc_serial.ko] undefined!
*** Warning: "lirc_register_plugin"
[/usr/src/lirc/lirc-0.8.0/drivers/lirc_serial/lirc_serial.ko] undefined!
*** Warning: "__guard"
[/usr/src/lirc/lirc-0.8.0/drivers/lirc_serial/lirc_serial.ko] undefined!
*** Warning: "__stack_smash_handler"
[/usr/src/lirc/lirc-0.8.0/drivers/lirc_serial/lirc_serial.ko] undefined!
After the compilation, running modprobe lirc_serial reveals pretty much the
same messages, but without the warning part.
I'm not much of a programmer, so I'm not sure what this program is doing
differently. Somehow it is not using libc? It is linking against my kernel
source though.
