[BusyBox] busybox insmod problem

[Eric Spakman]

Hello all,

It seems that busybox insmod (busybox pre5, latest from CVS but also 
previous versions) has problems loading the crypto modules from 
kernel-2.4.24. It also has problems with the airo module (which uses 
crypto)

# insmod aes
Using /lib/modules/aes.o
insmod: unresolved symbol crypto_unregister_alg
insmod: unresolved symbol crypto_register_alg

# insmod airo
Using /lib/modules/airo.o
insmod: unresolved symbol crypto_alloc_tfm
insmod: unresolved symbol crypto_free_tfm

Replacing busybox insmod with insmod from modultils-2.4.21 makes it 
just work. The above symbols are part of the crypto api.c in the 
kernel source and are compiled in the kernel, there are no extra 
dependencies.

I have not tried all the kernel modules, so there could be more 
modules which can't be load with bb insmod.

Regards,
Eric Spakman
