Is there any limit on number of modules one io-net instance?

Is there any limit on number of modules one io-net instance?

In My system I have three ethrenet ports, I have two different ethrenet drivers for these three port as two of them are FE and one is GE so I have executed following commands to get many modules loaded on the same io-net instance during startup of my system.

[b]io-net -p tcpip forward
waitfor /dev/io-net
mount -Tio-net -o dramcpp,mac0=000000000815,mac1=907020018900 devn-ixp2351.so
waitfor /dev/io-net/en0
ifconfig en0 192.168.253.254/24 up
echo “QNX IP Stack Started on interface en0”
waitfor /dev/io-net/en1
ifconfig en1 10.118.209.244/24 up
echo “QNX IP Stack Started on interface en1”

mount -Tio-net -o mac=0040431503c8 devn-ethIf.so
waitfor /dev/io-net/en2
echo “QNX IP Stack MOUNTED on GE0 Port”

ifconfig en2 192.168.255.129/25 up[/b]

Now I am trying to load my new filter module then I get error as shown below:

# mount -vvvv -Tio-net nfm_filter.so
Parsed: mount from [nfm_filter.so] mount on [NULL] type [io-net]
exec: mount_io-net -o implied -o nostat nfm_filter.so /
Using internal mount (mount_io-net not found)
Type [io-net] Flags 0x80080000
Device [nfm_filter.so] Directory [/]
Options []
mount: Can’t mount / (type io-net)
mount: Possible reason: No such device or address

I do not want to have new instance of io-net for this module as I need packets coming from existing drivers loaded in the same io-net.

Kindly help me…

Don’t think io-net have a limit on module number. You should be able to check by just load you module
before load driver. The error is just saying io-net can’t load your module.

Things to check:

1. is the module in LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or getconf CS_LIBPATH) ?
2. does io-net said anything in sloginfo?
3. does your module properly wrote? does it’s entry function get called?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
You have suggested following:

1. is the module in LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or getconf CS_LIBPATH) ?
   Ashish:-> This I have checked and It is perfectly there.
2. does io-net said anything in sloginfo?
   Ashish:-> When i run sloginfo It gives following output:

May 21 10:53:16 2 10 0 ixEthMiiLinkStatus failed on PHY0.
Can’t determine the status of the link.
Using default values.

3. does your module properly wrote? does it’s entry function get called?
   Ashish:-> How can I check whether entry function get called or not? Please see the code. I have written the code to best of my understanding.
