  • 5190044c2   modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers last ... Browse Code »

    In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to
    move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E
    option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol
    versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc,
    symbol, module).

    In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that
    suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I
    suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are
    no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export
    type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf44), which is over a decade ago now.

    Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the
    original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order
    to support pre

  • cb9b55d21   modpost: add support for symbol namespaces ... Browse Code »

    Add support for symbols that are exported into namespaces. For that,
    extract any namespace suffix from the symbol name. In addition, emit a
    warning whenever a module refers to an exported symbol without
    explicitly importing the namespace that it is defined in. This patch
    consistently adds the namespace suffix to symbol names exported into
    Module.symvers.

    Example warning emitted by modpost in case of the above violation:

    WARNING: module ums-usbat uses symbol usb_stor_resume from namespace
    USB_STORAGE, but does not import it.

  • cb77f0d62   scripts: Switch to more portable Perl shebang ... Browse Code »

    The default NetBSD package manager is pkgsrc and it installs Perl
    along other third party programs under custom and configurable prefix.
    The default prefix for binary prebuilt packages is /usr/pkg, and the
    Perl executable lands in /usr/pkg/bin/perl.

    This change switches "/usr/bin/perl" to "/usr/bin/env perl" as it's
    the most portable solution that should work for almost everybody.
    Perl's executable is detected automatically.

    This change switches -w option passed to the executable with more
    modern "use warnings;" approach. There is no functional change to the
    default behavior.

    While there, drop "require 5" from scripts/namespace.pl (Perl from 1994?).

    Also count CONFIG_MODVERSIONS warnings, and print a NOTE at start of
    SECTION 2 if any were issued. Section 2 will be empty if the build is
    lacking this CONFIG_ item, and user may have missed the warnings, as
    they're off screen.

  • bdabc7a34   export_report: sort SECTION 2 output ... Browse Code »

    Sort SECTION 2 modules by name. Within those module listings, sort
    the symbol providers by name, and remove the count, as it is
    misleading; its the kernel-wide count of uses of that symbol, not the
    count pertaining to the module being outlined. (this can be seen by
    grepping the output for a single symbol). The count is still used to
    sort the symbols.

  • de7b0b411   export_report: do collectcfiles work in perl itself ... Browse Code »

    Avoid spawning a shell pipeline doing cat, grep, sed, and do it all
    inside perl. The globbing construct works at least as far back
    as 5.8.9

    Note that this is not just an optimization; the sed command
    in the pipeline was unterminated, due to lack of escape on the
    end-of-line (\$) in the regex, resulting in this:

    $ perl ../linux-2.6/scripts/export_report.pl > /dev/null
    sed: -e expression #1, char 5: unterminated `s' command
    sh: .mod.c/: not found

    Comments on an earlier patch sought an all-perl implementation.

  • c5e300338   kbuild: export-symbol usage report generator ... Browse Code »

    The following patch provides the ability to generate a report of
    (1) All the exported symbols and their in-kernel-module usage count
    (2) For each module, lists the modules and their exported symbols, on
    which it depends.

    the report can be generated by executing:
    perl scripts/export_report

    The tool warns if the modules are not build using MODVERSIONING.
