A suggestion for Doug: how about adding a version number in the LKM which can be compared against that expected by the kernel. The idea is to warn and/or disallow loading of older LKMs into the kernel. The version number would be changed whenever say, a binary incompatibility is introduced. Do we have an ``approved set'' of kernel routines (a Driver Development API) that are callable by drivers? Koshy <koshy@india.hp.com> My Personal Opinions Only
