i am trying to write a simple device driver

filename:dd.c

#include <linux/module.h>
#include<linux/kernel.h>
#include<sys/resource.h>
#include<signal.h>

int init_module (void) /* Loads a module in the kernel */
{
printk("Hello kernel n");
return 0;
}

void cleanup_module(void) /* Removes module from kernel */
{
printk("GoodBye Kerneln");
}



i compiled it as follows: gcc -c dd.c


i am getting the following errors:

In file included from /usr/include/linux/sched.h:16,
from /usr/include/linux/module.h:9,
from dd.c:2:

On my RHEL4 box the file /usr/include/asm/cache.h is provided by the package glibc-kernheaders. Try to see if there is a similar one on RHEL5.
