no version for "function x" found: kernel tainted

May 08, 2008 3 Replies

Hi All, I am using two Dual BSD/GPL drivers for a stack development project. Both modules use the MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL "). One of the drivers depends on the other. When the modules gets loaded after issuing insmod command , I see a tainted message in the kernel output from the module that is calling the (function x) exported by other module that a exported (function x ) has no version.



How do I fix this? - there is a requirement that no tainted messages appear.



Thanks
