export,module: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to headers with no license Commit b24413180f56 ("License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license") took care of a lot of files without any license information. These headers were not processed by the tool perhaps because they contain "GPL" in the code. I do not see any license boilerplate in them, so they fall back to GPL version 2 only, which is the project default.

module.h: split out the EXPORT_SYMBOL into export.h A lot of files pull in module.h when all they are really looking for is the basic EXPORT_SYMBOL functionality. The recent data from Ingo[1] shows that this is one of several instances that has a significant impact on compile times, and it should be targeted for factoring out (as done here). Note that several commonly used header files in include/* directly include <linux/module.h> themselves (some 34 of them!) The most commonly used ones of these will have to be made independent of module.h before the full benefit of this change can be realized. We also transition THIS_MODULE from module.h to export.h, since there are lots of files with subsystem structs that in turn will have a struct module *owner and only be doing: .owner = THIS_MODULE; and absolutely nothing else modular. So, we also want to have the THIS_MODULE definition present in the lightweight header. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/5/23/76 Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

kbuild: allow archs to select link dead code/data elimination Introduce LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION option for architectures to select to build with -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections, and link with --gc-sections. It requires some work (documented) to ensure all unreferenced entrypoints are live, and requires toolchain and build verification, so it is made a per-arch option for now. On a random powerpc64le build, this yelds a significant size saving, it boots and runs fine, but there is a lot I haven't tested as yet, so these savings may be reduced if there are bugs in the link. text data bss dec filename 11169741 1180744 1923176 14273661 vmlinux 10445269 1004127 1919707 13369103 vmlinux.dce ~700K text, ~170K data, 6% removed from kernel image size.

modversions: treat symbol CRCs as 32 bit quantities The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value. This has a couple of downsides: - Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes for each CRC on 64 bit architectures, - On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the core module code) - Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for CRCs. Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC value is stored. So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the __CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use 32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained for 32-bit architectures.

module: add support for symbol namespaces. The EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL() macros can be used to export a symbol to a specific namespace. There are no _GPL_FUTURE and _UNUSED variants because these are currently unused, and I'm not sure they are necessary. I didn't add EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for ASM exports; this patch sets the namespace of ASM exports to NULL by default. In case of relative references, it will be relocatable to NULL. If there's a need, this should be pretty easy to add. A module that wants to use a symbol exported to a namespace must add a MODULE_IMPORT_NS() statement to their module code; otherwise, modpost will complain when building the module, and the kernel module loader will emit an error and fail when loading the module. MODULE_IMPORT_NS() adds a modinfo tag 'import_ns' to the module. That tag can be observed by the modinfo command, modpost and kernel/module.c at the time of loading the module. The ELF symbols are renamed to include the namespace with an asm label; for example, symbol 'usb_stor_suspend' in namespace USB_STORAGE becomes 'usb_stor_suspend.USB_STORAGE'. This allows modpost to do namespace checking, without having to go through all the effort of parsing ELF and relocation records just to get to the struct kernel_symbols. On x86_64 I saw no difference in binary size (compression), but at runtime this will require a word of memory per export to hold the namespace. An alternative could be to store namespaced symbols in their own section and use a separate 'struct namespaced_kernel_symbol' for that section, at the cost of making the module loader more complex.

module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries, each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively. When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot time. Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all 64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64) or using custom host tools (x86). Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch does not interfere with that. Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for all architectures. So make it dependent on whether CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

export: avoid code duplication in include/linux/export.h include/linux/export.h has lots of code duplication between EXPORT_SYMBOL and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS. To improve the maintainability and readability, unify the implementation. When the symbol has no namespace, pass the empty string "" to the 'ns' parameter. The drawback of this change is, it grows the code size. When the symbol has no namespace, sym->namespace was previously NULL, but it is now an empty string "". So, it increases 1 byte for every no namespace EXPORT_SYMBOL. A typical kernel configuration has 10K exported symbols, so it increases 10KB in rough estimation. I did not come up with a good idea to refactor it without increasing the code size. I am not sure how big a deal it is, but at least include/linux/export.h looks nicer.

symbol namespaces: revert to previous __ksymtab name scheme The introduction of Symbol Namespaces changed the naming schema of the __ksymtab entries from __kysmtab__symbol to __ksymtab_NAMESPACE.symbol. That caused some breakages in tools that depend on the name layout in either the binaries(vmlinux,*.ko) or in System.map. E.g. kmod's depmod would not be able to read System.map without a patch to support symbol namespaces. A warning reported by depmod for namespaced symbols would look like depmod: WARNING: [...]/uas.ko needs unknown symbol usb_stor_adjust_quirks In order to address this issue, revert to the original naming scheme and rather read the __kstrtabns_<symbol> entries and their corresponding values from __ksymtab_strings to update the namespace values for symbols. After having read all symbols and handled them in handle_modversions(), the symbols are created. In a second pass, read the __kstrtabns_ entries and update the namespaces accordingly.

module: rename __kstrtab_ns_* to __kstrtabns_* to avoid symbol conflict The module namespace produces __strtab_ns_<sym> symbols to store namespace strings, but it does not guarantee the name uniqueness. This is a potential problem because we have exported symbols starting with "ns_". For example, kernel/capability.c exports the following symbols: EXPORT_SYMBOL(ns_capable); EXPORT_SYMBOL(capable); Assume a situation where those are converted as follows: EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(ns_capable, some_namespace); EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(capable, some_namespace); The former expands to "__kstrtab_ns_capable" and "__kstrtab_ns_ns_capable", and the latter to "__kstrtab_capable" and "__kstrtab_ns_capable". Then, we have the duplicated "__kstrtab_ns_capable". To ensure the uniqueness, rename "__kstrtab_ns_*" to "__kstrtabns_*".

module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries, each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively. When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot time. Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all 64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64) or using custom host tools (x86). Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch does not interfere with that. Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for all architectures. So make it dependent on whether CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

export: explicitly align struct kernel_symbol This change allows growing struct kernel_symbol without wasting bytes to alignment. It also concretized the alignment of ksymtab entries if relative references are used for ksymtab entries. struct kernel_symbol was already implicitly being aligned to the word size, except on x86_64 and m68k, where it is aligned to 16 and 2 bytes, respectively. As far as I can tell there is no requirement for aligning struct kernel_symbol to 16 bytes on x86_64, but gcc aligns structs to their size, and the linker aligns the custom __ksymtab sections to the largest data type contained within, so setting KSYM_ALIGN to 16 was necessary to stay consistent with the code generated for non-ASM EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Now that non-ASM EXPORT_SYMBOL() explicitly aligns to word size (8), KSYM_ALIGN is no longer necessary. In case of relative references, the alignment has been changed accordingly to not waste space when adding new struct members. As for m68k, struct kernel_symbol is aligned to 2 bytes even though the structure itself is 8 bytes; using a 4-byte alignment shouldn't hurt. I manually verified the output of the __ksymtab sections didn't change on x86, x86_64, arm, arm64 and m68k. As expected, the section contents didn't change, and the ELF section alignment only changed on x86_64 and m68k. Feedback from other archs more than welcome.

export: avoid code duplication in include/linux/export.h include/linux/export.h has lots of code duplication between EXPORT_SYMBOL and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS. To improve the maintainability and readability, unify the implementation. When the symbol has no namespace, pass the empty string "" to the 'ns' parameter. The drawback of this change is, it grows the code size. When the symbol has no namespace, sym->namespace was previously NULL, but it is now an empty string "". So, it increases 1 byte for every no namespace EXPORT_SYMBOL. A typical kernel configuration has 10K exported symbols, so it increases 10KB in rough estimation. I did not come up with a good idea to refactor it without increasing the code size. I am not sure how big a deal it is, but at least include/linux/export.h looks nicer.

export.h, genksyms: do not make genksyms calculate CRC of trimmed symbols Arnd Bergmann reported false-positive modpost warnings detected by his randconfig testing of linux-next. Actually, this happens under the combination of CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS since commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions"). For example, arch/arm/config/multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_MODVERSIONS + CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS produces the following false-positives: WARNING: "__lshrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lasr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "ftrace_set_clr_event" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__muldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_ulcmp" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ucmpdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lmul" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapsi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsl" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) The root cause of the problem is not in the modpost, but in the implementation of CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS. If there is at least one untrimmed symbol in the file, genksyms is invoked to calculate CRC of *all* the exported symbols in that file even if some of them have been trimmed due to no caller existing.

export: avoid code duplication in include/linux/export.h include/linux/export.h has lots of code duplication between EXPORT_SYMBOL and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS. To improve the maintainability and readability, unify the implementation. When the symbol has no namespace, pass the empty string "" to the 'ns' parameter. The drawback of this change is, it grows the code size. When the symbol has no namespace, sym->namespace was previously NULL, but it is now an empty string "". So, it increases 1 byte for every no namespace EXPORT_SYMBOL. A typical kernel configuration has 10K exported symbols, so it increases 10KB in rough estimation. I did not come up with a good idea to refactor it without increasing the code size. I am not sure how big a deal it is, but at least include/linux/export.h looks nicer.

export.h, genksyms: do not make genksyms calculate CRC of trimmed symbols Arnd Bergmann reported false-positive modpost warnings detected by his randconfig testing of linux-next. Actually, this happens under the combination of CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS since commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions"). For example, arch/arm/config/multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_MODVERSIONS + CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS produces the following false-positives: WARNING: "__lshrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lasr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "ftrace_set_clr_event" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__muldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_ulcmp" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ucmpdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lmul" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapsi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsl" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) The root cause of the problem is not in the modpost, but in the implementation of CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS. If there is at least one untrimmed symbol in the file, genksyms is invoked to calculate CRC of *all* the exported symbols in that file even if some of them have been trimmed due to no caller existing.

export.h: reduce __ksymtab_strings string duplication by using "MS" section flags Commit c3a6cf19e695 ("export: avoid code duplication in include/linux/export.h") refactors export.h quite nicely, but introduces a slight increase in memory usage due to using the empty string "" instead of NULL to indicate that an exported symbol has no namespace. As mentioned in that commit, this meant an increase of 1 byte per exported symbol without a namespace. For example, if a kernel configuration has about 10k exported symbols, this would mean that the size of __ksymtab_strings would increase by roughly 10kB. We can alleviate this situation by utilizing the SHF_MERGE and SHF_STRING section flags. SHF_MERGE|SHF_STRING indicate to the linker that the data in the section are null-terminated strings that can be merged to eliminate duplication. More specifically, from the binutils documentation - "for sections with both M and S, a string which is a suffix of a larger string is considered a duplicate. Thus "def" will be merged with "abcdef"; A reference to the first "def" will be changed to a reference to "abcdef"+3". Thus, all the empty strings would be merged as well as any strings that can be merged according to the cited method above. For example, "memset" and "__memset" would be merged to just "__memset" in __ksymtab_strings. As of v5.4-rc5, the following statistics were gathered with x86 defconfig with approximately 10.7k exported symbols. Size of __ksymtab_strings in vmlinux: ------------------------------------- v5.4-rc5: 213834 bytes v5.4-rc5 with commit c3a6cf19e695: 224455 bytes v5.4-rc5 with this patch: 205759 bytes So, we already see memory savings of ~8kB compared to vanilla -rc5 and savings of nearly 18.7kB compared to -rc5 with commit c3a6cf19e695 on top. Unfortunately, as of this writing, strings will not get deduplicated for kernel modules, as ld does not do the deduplication for SHF_MERGE|SHF_STRINGS sections for relocatable files (ld -r), which kernel modules are. A patch for ld is currently being worked on to hopefully allow for string deduplication in relocatable files in the future.

module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries, each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively. When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot time. Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all 64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64) or using custom host tools (x86). Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch does not interfere with that. Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for all architectures. So make it dependent on whether CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

module.h: split out the EXPORT_SYMBOL into export.h A lot of files pull in module.h when all they are really looking for is the basic EXPORT_SYMBOL functionality. The recent data from Ingo[1] shows that this is one of several instances that has a significant impact on compile times, and it should be targeted for factoring out (as done here). Note that several commonly used header files in include/* directly include <linux/module.h> themselves (some 34 of them!) The most commonly used ones of these will have to be made independent of module.h before the full benefit of this change can be realized. We also transition THIS_MODULE from module.h to export.h, since there are lots of files with subsystem structs that in turn will have a struct module *owner and only be doing: .owner = THIS_MODULE; and absolutely nothing else modular. So, we also want to have the THIS_MODULE definition present in the lightweight header. [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/5/23/76 Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

To improve the maintainability and readability, unify the implementation. When the symbol has no namespace, pass the empty string "" to the 'ns' parameter. The drawback of this change is, it grows the code size. When the symbol has no namespace, sym->namespace was previously NULL, but it is now an empty string "". So, it increases 1 byte for every no namespace EXPORT_SYMBOL. A typical kernel configuration has 10K exported symbols, so it increases 10KB in rough estimation. I did not come up with a good idea to refactor it without increasing the code size. I am not sure how big a deal it is, but at least include/linux/export.h looks nicer.

module: add support for symbol namespaces. The EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL() macros can be used to export a symbol to a specific namespace. There are no _GPL_FUTURE and _UNUSED variants because these are currently unused, and I'm not sure they are necessary. I didn't add EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for ASM exports; this patch sets the namespace of ASM exports to NULL by default. In case of relative references, it will be relocatable to NULL. If there's a need, this should be pretty easy to add. A module that wants to use a symbol exported to a namespace must add a MODULE_IMPORT_NS() statement to their module code; otherwise, modpost will complain when building the module, and the kernel module loader will emit an error and fail when loading the module. MODULE_IMPORT_NS() adds a modinfo tag 'import_ns' to the module. That tag can be observed by the modinfo command, modpost and kernel/module.c at the time of loading the module. The ELF symbols are renamed to include the namespace with an asm label; for example, symbol 'usb_stor_suspend' in namespace USB_STORAGE becomes 'usb_stor_suspend.USB_STORAGE'. This allows modpost to do namespace checking, without having to go through all the effort of parsing ELF and relocation records just to get to the struct kernel_symbols. On x86_64 I saw no difference in binary size (compression), but at runtime this will require a word of memory per export to hold the namespace. An alternative could be to store namespaced symbols in their own section and use a separate 'struct namespaced_kernel_symbol' for that section, at the cost of making the module loader more complex.

The format is: #define __KSYM_<symbol_name> 1 This list will be auto-generated with another patch. For now we only include the preprocessor magic to automatically create or omit the corresponding struct kernel_symbol declaration.

export.h, genksyms: do not make genksyms calculate CRC of trimmed symbols Arnd Bergmann reported false-positive modpost warnings detected by his randconfig testing of linux-next. Actually, this happens under the combination of CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS since commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions"). For example, arch/arm/config/multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_MODVERSIONS + CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS produces the following false-positives: WARNING: "__lshrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashrdi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lasr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsr" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "ftrace_set_clr_event" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__muldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_ulcmp" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ucmpdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_lmul" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapsi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__bswapdi2" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__ashldi3" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) WARNING: "__aeabi_llsl" [vmlinux] is a static (unknown) The root cause of the problem is not in the modpost, but in the implementation of CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS. If there is at least one untrimmed symbol in the file, genksyms is invoked to calculate CRC of *all* the exported symbols in that file even if some of them have been trimmed due to no caller existing. As a result, .tmp_*.ver files contain CRC of trimmed symbols, thus unneeded, orphan __crc* symbols are added to objects. It had been harmless until recently. With commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions"), it is now harmful because the bogus __crc* symbols make modpost call sym_update_crc() to add the symbols to the hash table, but there is no one that clears the ->is_static member. I gave Fixes to the first commit that uncovered the issue, but the potential problem has long existed since commit f235541699bc ("export.h: allow for per-symbol configurable EXPORT_SYMBOL()").

For example, to export all symbols defined in usb-common into the namespace USB_COMMON, add a line like this to drivers/usb/common/Makefile: ccflags-y += -DDEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE=USB_COMMON That is equivalent to changing all EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym) definitions to EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(sym, USB_COMMON). Subsequently all symbol namespaces functionality will apply.

But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to do so. Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set: 1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym) 3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7) 5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym) 6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX 7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version for pasting. (arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too). Let's solve this properly: 1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm. 3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(). 4) Make everyone use them.
