  • Invalid Module Format error

    Posted on

    RHEL 9.2 on Virtual Box
    Kernel: 5.14.0-284.25.1.el9_2.x86_64
    No kernel parameter altered. ISO image installed on Virtual Box and run.

    After building our custom KO module, while doing insmod/modprobe
    the following error is reported:
    insmod: ERROR: could not insert module : Invalid module format

    The dmesg log reports this:
    module: x86/modules: Skipping invalid relocation target, existing value is nonzero for type 1, loc , val

    Could not figure out the reason.
