Function is in System.map but still an "unresolved symbol"

    Hi,

    I use

    int function_name()
    { /* some stuff */
    }
    EXPORT_SYMBOL(function_name);

    in a .c file and modified the Makefile to include the appropriate .o file in
    export-objs

    Everything compiles fine, function_name appears in System.map like this:

    c0020bb0 T function_name
    c015682c R __kstrab_function_name

    However, when I try to insmod a module that uses function_name, it's
    unresolved.

    when I delete the line with EXPORT_SYMBOL in the .c file, the second line in
    System.map dissapears. (Not surprisingly still unresolved on insmod)

    Probably I do something wrong, could somebody give me a hint?

    Thank you very much,

    FS
