`man depmod` first. The module cannot be installed unless depmod makes a dependency list that is free from unresolved symbols. If you use symbols in your module that are not already exported by the kernel. You will have to modify /linux/kernel/ksyms.c and export them. Carefull, there are reasons why there are only a few kernel symbols exported.
