as I understood, I am not allowed using floating point in kernel. I
have written a module which have a double variable. I succeded to
compile it, but when I have inserted the module, the message
:"floating point used in kernel (task=... pc=...)" appeared. I must
use the double type. do you know how can I deal that problem? (p.s - I
am not using any floating point register. the compiler does the
floating emulation).
Thanks
