From 9895c03d48115c7783c0ef0a591447d53254ef84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Pitre Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2016 17:07:24 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: record needed exported symbols for modules Kernel modules are partially linked object files with some undefined symbols that are expected to be matched with EXPORT_SYMBOL() entries from elsewhere. Each .tmp_versions/*.mod file currently contains two line of text separated by a newline character. The first line has the actual module file name while the second line has a list of object files constituting that module. Those files are parsed by modpost (scripts/mod/sumversion.c), scripts/Makefile.modpost, scripts/Makefile.modsign, etc. Only the modpost utility cares about the second line while the others retrieve only the first line. Therefore we can add a third line to record the list of undefined symbols aka required EXPORT_SYMBOL() entries for each module into that file without breaking anything. Like for the second line, symbols are separated by a blank and the list is terminated with a newline character. To avoid needless build overhead, the undefined symbols extraction is performed only when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is selected.
