Currently I work on USB gadget features on Apalis IMX6 board. I’ve succeed to make this board acts like a mass storage device thanks to g_mass_storage module.
The next step is to make apalis board acts like a webcam. Today, we use gstreamer to display video datas from camera through /dev/video0 (with generic_camera).
By following this thread link text
I configure kernel to have g_webcam module. But when I try to install the module, got this error :
modprobe: FATAL: Module g_webcam not found.
g_webcam is however present in drivers/usb/gadget on the target.
You are a bit ambiguous here. A kernel module would end in *.ko, so you should have a file g_webcam.ko installed in a path which starts with /lib/modules.
E.g. this should find the file:
find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ -name g_webcam.ko
Did you, after installing the kernel module but before trying to insert it with modprobe run depmod successfully?
g_webcam.ko is correctly find. Now, with depmod command, I’m able to load module, even if they are some issues :
[ 53.293071] libcomposite: Unknown symbol config_group_init (err 0)

[ 53.321061] libcomposite: Unknown symbol config_group_init_type_name (err 0)
[ 53.328226] libcomposite: Unknown symbol config_item_put (err 0)
Before to continue, is that my goal possible to do ? I mean, have you ever realized or heard about this kind of project ? (plug system based on apalis imx6 on host computer by usb to use it as a webcam ?)
