sched.c contains the implementation, the definition is in sched/sched.h, you should #include that header. > Here's the pertinent piece of Makefile in kernel/Makefile > Code: > > # > # Makefile for the linux kernel. > # > > obj-y = sched.o fork.o exec_domain.o panic.o printk.o \ > cpu.o exit.o itimer.o time.o softirq.o > resource.o \ > sysctl.o sysctl_binary.o capability.o > ptrace.o timer.o user.o \ > signal.o sys.o kmod.o workqueue.o pid.o \ > rcupdate.o extable.o params.o posix-timers.o \ > kthread.o wait.o kfifo.o sys_ni.o > posix-cpu-timers.o mutex.o \ > hrtimer.o rwsem.o nsproxy.o srcu.o > semaphore.o \ > notifier.o ksysfs.o pm_qos_params.o > sched_clock.o cred.o \ > async.o range.o jump_label.o > obj-y += mysystemcalls.o > > I would think that since sched.o(the first c > file that gets compiled) has the definition for the cpu_rq() then > mysystemcalls.c should be able to see that function. What am I missing? > You don't have a *link* error. It is not that the linker can't find cpu_rq(). It is the compiler that does not understand the cpu_rq() definition. Try to include the header.
