Cypress USB to Serial driver

[IGHOR]

Hello. I'm trying to use UPS thats works via Cypress USB to Serial adapter.

And its driver missing in unRAID so I'm getting no /dev/ttyUSB0 device.

I have compiled on the same kernel version that contains this driver kernel/drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.ko

I'm trying to make it works using scripts at startup.

On load I got error: insmod: ERROR: could not insert module ./4.14.49/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.ko: Invalid module format
But I'm sure it the same x86_64 as used in unRAID.

Please help me to make it works.

any help please?

Your best bet here would be to ping @CHBMB (although he's extremely busy as of late and has basically zero time)

 

99.9% of the people here (myself included) have zero experience in compiling our own kernels.

 

All that being said, it *seems* to me that you would have better success utilizing a direct serial port connection (a number of mb's still have them even though they don't include the cable) to do this, so long as it's presented as a standard com port.  (or change out the UPS for one that supports USB)
