I've tried searching but cant seem to find anyone with the same issue.
When I try to mount a share with cifs I get a device not found error
I've tried mount manager and from terminal. I can browse the share with any file manager and I can mount the share with cifs on my phone.
I did the manual root from early in the day sunday and am wondering if I missed a step somewhere. I got cifs.ko in the system/lib/modules folder so I know I did that right.
Anyone got any suggestions?
Wrong forum. Thread moved. Next time, I will simply delete.
You'll get that error if the module hasn't loaded.
Go to a terminal, and type
cd /system/lib/modules
insmod cifs.ko
lsmod
You shouldn't get any errors, and lsmod should show the cifs module in its list.
Then go back to cifs manager, and try mounting again.

my error is
cd /system/lib/modules
# insmod cifs.ko
insmod cifs.ko
insmod: init_module 'cifs.ko' failed (Exec format error)

Why?
I've searched and posted twice about this. Has anyone with a wifi xoom gotten cifs to mount successfully? I can mount fine on my incredible but nothing on my xoom....just "no such device"
Same issue here, even after flashing a kernel with cifs support. I am using wifi on a 3G Xoom.
Yes. It probably has to do with the wrong path to the system modules. Actually, that /system/lib/modules path is pretty common. So you're probably not checking the option to load via insmod - double check the path to make sure its correct. Also try (via terminal emulator) cd /system/lib/modules && insmod cifs.ko
And then lsmod (if you have busybox set up) to verify. On second thought, cifsmanager has sort of a built in lsmod via clicking "about" and then "modules". You should see bcm4329 (or dhd, I don't know what its called on the Xoom exactly) and if the cifs module is correctly loaded - you should also see cifs loaded.
Here is what I've tried:
1. Settings -> about tablet to get kernel version: 2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod [email protected] #1
2. Go to http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/ and find the kernel for gTab. There are several one, I just picked one with Gingerbread and downloaded
lib-2632.39_gb.tar.gz
Unpack on put cifs.ko under /system/lib/modules
3. Install CIFS Manger
4. Run CIFS Manager, add the share
5. If there is problem mount it in rw mode, use option "rw,noperm" (thanks, rajeevvp)
The share is successfully mounted.
Thanks!

After pushing the cifs module to the tablet you need to add an chmod and then you also need a insmod line every time you want to use it (at least after following a reboot).
Go back and read the instructions on droid basement. He has the details of the steps following loading the cifs.ko.
Good luck.

CIFS manager already loads the module fine. Are you saying in order to mount in rw mode, it needs permission on cifs.ko file?

No, you don't.
CIFS Manager should have an option to do a read-write mount.
Otherwise, you can try changing the mounting back into read-write mode:
Code:
$ su
# /system/xbin/mount -w -o remount /CIFS/PATH
Replace, /CIFS/PATH with the directory you provided to CIFS Manager.
Also, understand my cautions, as mentioned in the other thread, about mixing and matching kernels and kernel modules. I would suggest that you also install the kernel that goes with the module file you downloaded--ie. get the one in the same blog post.
Appreciate your advice on not mixing kernel and modules. I could not tell which exact build CM 7 uses so I had to pick one. When I get more experienced with Android, I may start changing kernels.
Doesn't CIFS uses rw mount by default? If not, what's the option? rw? I've tried that as well.
If I change the system file to mount it by default, I'd have to save the password on the command line, right? Will wireless be ready at that time? And if server or wireless is not ready at the time, I'd need to manually remount with some tool, do I?
Thanks!

Yes, by default it should be mounted read-write. If, for some reason, it gets mounted read-only, you can use the remount command I gave earlier to make the mount read-write again.
But, there could be other reasons for you not being able to write to the share directory. Permission and UID/GID mismatches could be one reason. Try adding the "noperm" flag to tell Linux not to check permissions locally ie. do the permission checking only on Windows:
Code:
/system/xbin/mount -t cifs //SERVER-IP-ADDRESS/SHARENAME /some/path -o rw,noperm,domain=DOMAIN,username=USER.NAME,password=PASSWORD
If I change the system file to mount it by default, I'd have to save the password on the command line, right? Will wireless be ready at that time? And if server or wireless is not ready at the time, I'd need to manually remount with some tool, do I?

Which system file? If you mean /etc/fstab, then that file does not exist on Android.
CIFS Manager (I haven't used it) should have an option to let you store the password securely. On normal Unix systems, the mount command accepts a "credentials=/some/file.txt" option which can be used in place of the "domain=XXX,username=YYY" options when mounting. Unfortunately, the mount command on the gTablet does not understand that option--I checked: you have to do it the old-fashioned way. You can't even skip the "password=" bit. On Unix, if you skip that, the mount command will prompt you for the password.
The solution, if you don't use CIFS Manager, is to place all the commands--the insmod and the mount--into a shell-script and give it 700 permissions. That way only the owner can see what's inside it and you can run the script after the wireless has come up.
noperm does the trick. Will update first post.

Could you explain the exact process for doing this from a terminal emulator. My main hold up is the /system directory being read only, so I can't copy the module (CIFS.KO in this case) to that directory.

You don't need to put cifs.ko into /system. If CIFS Manager asks for the path to a cifs.ko file, then you can put the file anywhere you want.
I have a new problem. There seems to be a limit on the file size. I have a 3 GB file shows up as 28 KB. Does anyone have success with large file? Thanks
I tried your instruction... there are two problems...(my rom is also cm7.0.3)
1. I can't put the cifs.ko into /system/lib/modules~ it seems that it is forbid to copy some files into system folder...
2. so I tried to put the cifs.ko in the /mnt/cifs.ko, and made the related setting in cifs manager(path to cifs.ko), then i mounted, but it showed that:"no route to host"
but i am sure that my ip and password is correct... so is there anyone know how to solve this problem?
I used Root Explorer. I am sure there are other means to put it under /system. I am not sure if that's necessary

I literally just went through this today. Download Terminal Emulator (free on the market).
PS: Don't type the '#' sign below.
#su
#/system/xbin/mount -w -o remount /system
#cp /SDCARD/cifs.ko /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/
#/system/xbin/mount -r -o remount /system
Then, just add the path /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/ into CIFS Manager. Should be all set.

File size limits depend on the underlying filesystem.
I tried the following command on an external NTFS formatted USB HDD connected to a Linux desktop mounted on the gTablet at /mnt/usbdisk via CIFS, and had no problems.
Code:
# ls -l /mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 8011422720 Apr 17 2010 /mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img
# dd if=/mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img of=/dev/null bs=1M skip=7500
140+1 records in
140+1 records out
147102720 bytes (140.3MB) copied, 150.135761 seconds, 956.8KB/s
The command skips the initial 7.5 GB of a 8,011,422,720 byte file and reads the rest (~140 MB).

I had the same issue, but I found the guide on abettergeek which helped me fix it. Turns out the problem is that the mount point created by Cifs Manager doesn't have execute permissions.
I don't have enough seniority to post the link, but it's a recent post on abettergeek.com. If someone with enough seniority wants to paste it, some others may find it extremely helpful.

Pls, where I can put "rw,noperm" in cifs manager? I tried in module path as:
/system/lib/modules/slow-work.ko:/system/lib/modules/cifs.ko rw,noperm
And:
/system/lib/modules/slow-work.ko:/system/lib/modules/cifs.ko:rw,noperm
But still don't working as rw.
Ty.
I took a vanilla 2.6.39.4 linux source tree, copied in the .config from /proc from my running ICS v9 build. And compiled it.
After that, turned on CIFS and XPAD support in the config and compiled them as modules.
These modules load fine if I insmod them, and I can confirm that after loading ff_memless and xpad I now have my xbox360 pad working on the home screen (I can move through screens and icons).
edit: Just played a round of Riptide GP, works fine .
edit: I updated the cifs module and included the md4 crypto module, and they now work! I manually 'insmodded' md4.ko and then cifs.ko, and from the command line and / or from cifsmanger I can now mount a share.
As I said, these modules load fine, but in dmesg there is a notion that the version magic isn't perfect yet. So I might make updated ones with proper versionmagic set. But for now it seems to be working.
Might be handy for ROM chefs who are working with the stock ICS kernel for which we have no sources yet.
TUN module is _builtin_ by default on ICS stock kernel, so no need for it anymore.
EDIT v2 zips: I recompiled them with the correct version info, so they give no more warnings when loaded through insmod. I added them to my stock rom to auto-load during boot (created a simple /system/etc/install-recovery.sh) and all seems fine so far.
For voodoo sound to work, is it a simple module which I can get anywhere? I only see 2.6.36 kernel trees on Project Voodoo website

in case you want to try that too because its faster than cifs
nfs support is in the kernel, no additional modules required
to get it working with cifsmanager mountings nfs shares i did the following
(it also works with commandline)
### as su and /system readwrite mounted
### remove symlink to toolbox
rm /system/bin/mount
### and use busybox instead
ln -s /system/xbin/busybox /system/bin/mount
mount options: rw,intr,soft,nolock
the modules are already working.
NFS support is nice for people with linux boxes but most windows users don't have a use for it , that's why they want cifs .
I don't care much for overclocking, so with cifs support + xbox360 support I'm more than happy with rooted stock now . And rom chefs can include the modules in their optimized ROMs until we have proper kernel source
Care to share how to get this loaded into the current ics roms. I have copied to /system/lib/modules and tried to load using mount manager and cifs manager with no luck.

you can e.g. create a script (like I believe OP did) in /etc/system/install-recovery.sh with
#!/system/bin/sh
insmod cifs.ko
insmod md4.ko
or you can mount it by hand in terminal (with insmod)
or you can simply create init.d script and call it 91modules:
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 1
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
echo "CIFS support activated";
and place it in system/etc/init.d if custom ROM supports init.d support.

jerry was close. Module auto-loading won't work, so you have to do it by hand.
Through an 'adb shell' or with a terminal emulator app from the market, type the following:
su -
insmod /system/lib/modules/md4.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
cifsmanager should work, until you reboot, you'll have to do the lines again.
Creating a file /system/etc/install-recovery.sh will do it auto on boot:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/lib/modules/md4.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
Make sure to create the file executable (permissions 777 will do ).
I hope rom chefs will use them and make them auto-load at boot until we have the sources from Asus.
edit: What mike said works, IF you have init.d support. Most custom ROMs have this, stock rom has not I believe.

Keep in mind that install-recovery.sh is executed from ramdisk (init.ventana.rc or init.rc, don't remember now) and some chefs (including me) removed that execution line. So much easier to add init.d script I think. Just a suggestion
EDIT:
yeah, for those on stock ROMs install-recovery.sh method is good, for those using custom ROMs it's better to use init.d

my guess is you're trying to load them double or something.
If you give the command 'lsmod' you get a listed of loaded modules. Check if they're there or not.

just sharing how I did manage cifs to work
I've installed Revolution HD 3.00 (ICS 4.0.3), installed CifsManager, didn't work, tried to copy cifs.ko and md4.ko in /system/lib/modules with File Expert or Root Explorer, couldn't because of a read-only system files, plugged my tablet on a PC, launched an adb session and typed:
$ adb shell
$ su
$ mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
pushed through adb cifs.ko and md4.ko in /system/lib/modules
changed the permission to 777 using File Expert
launched cifs and md4 using terminal emulator:
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/md4.ko
in cifsmanager settings, didn't check load modules on boot and load through insmod
tried to connect my shares: succeed
Hope it will help somebody

hmm strange
my /system is mounted elsewhere
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /system type ext4
anyway
another method without terminal (and.revol hd 3.0.0 only)
adb shell sysrw
adb push cifs.ko /system/lib/modules
adb push md4.ko /system/lib/modules
adb shell chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/*.ko
adb shell insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
adb shell insmod /system/lib/modules/md4.ko
If the modules don't cause problems, they will likely be in the next ARHD version.
Remounting goes like this: busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
Yaffs2 filesystem isn't used anymore, and 'remount ' ignores these parameters anyway .
Please keep it readable for people on stock ics, custom roms will get these modules somehow anyway.
Adb sysrw will not work without modified bootdisk AFAIK.
Wat is Janos? ? Maybe it needs more than the tun module, like crypto modules?
Btw, my tablet still working fine. Never had a Sleep of Death. Actually, never EVER had a SOD with my tablet, and I can't seem how any cifs module can cause it like some people are saying.

actually it does, if you

fill out "path to cifs.ko":

cifs 218286 0 - Live 0xbf12a000
md4 3007 0 - Live 0xbf003000
it is a little work to type the pathes, and you surely are right that for most people its easier if it is loaded in the rom (init.d or somewhere else) automagically
btw: if you once compile modules again would you mind compiling the hfsplus module en passant? it should compile without any troubles and dependencies and allows manually (command line) mounting a mac os x external harddisk?

I haven't tested them (as in, didn't even try if they would load OK).
I just noticed I screwed up the vermagic again, so you'll get a warning in dmesg while loading. Should load ok though.
edit: Ok I've redone them. Proper cpu + vermagic now

Hi all,
I've followed the threads at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003836 and https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502559 to the best of my ability but can't seem to get this to work for the life of me! I'm stuck on the part where insmod is used to load the md4.ko and cifs.ko modules. I get "insmod: failed to load /system/lib/modules/<module name>: Permission denied" errors in either case.
I have ensured that I am properly rooted, BusyBox 1.26.2 is installed to /system/bin and /system is mounted as read-write. All relevant files/directories have 777 permissions and I am running these commands as root. So what else could be the problem??
I've tried this from both Terminal Emulator on the phone itself, and also from an adb shell on my PC. Can't use adb localhost on the phone as it doesn't seem to be installed (I get "sush: adb: not found" when trying to run "adb").
Curiously, running the insmod command and having it fail seems to remount /system as read-only again (prompt changes from "zeroflte:/ #" to "1|zeroflte:/ #", which it was before the first remount). Could this have anything to do with the issue?
MTIA as I've been tearing my hair out for the best part of a day trying to figure out what the %$#& I'm doing wrong!
Kernel modules needs to be compiled for the specified kernel that you are currently using on your phone. If the insmod detects that the module is not compiled for the kernel that the device currently running on, it wont allow to load them. But in that case, if I remember correctly, a different error should be shown instead of "Permission denied" error (at least it was like that on kernel 2.6.xx, may it had been changed on 3.xx).
Or with a very low chance, maybe the SELinux prevents the insmodding the modules.

OK, how would I go about rebuilding the kernel myself? I have TWRP installed and know how to flash the resulting image, but have no idea where to even start with kernel modification and haven't been able to find much on the subject for my specific device.

But in that case, if I remember correctly, a different error should be shown instead of "Permission denied" error (at least it was like that on kernel 2.6.xx, maybe it has been changed on 3.xx).

Does that mean that even if I could bypass the permission denied error, I would be likely to get other errors? If so, should I simply give up on trying to get those modules to work?

Or with a very low chance, maybe the SELinux prevents the insmodding the modules.

I have tried "setenforce 0" and "setenforce Permissive" just in case those commands might help, but neither one did (getenforce returned "Enforcing" after running either command as root).
