Denis Efremov 15bfc2348d modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions ... This patch adds a check to warn about static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions during the modpost. In most of the cases, a static symbol marked for exporting is an odd combination that should be fixed either by deleting the exporting mark or by removing the static attribute and adding the appropriate declaration to headers. This check could help to detect the following problems: 1. 550113d4e9 ("i2c: add newly exported functions to the header, too") 2. 54638c6eaf ("net: phy: make exported variables non-static") 3. 98ef2046f2 ("mm: remove the exporting of totalram_pages") 4. 73df167c81 ("s390/zcrypt: remove the exporting of ap_query_configuration") 5. a57caf8c52 ("sunrpc/cache: remove the exporting of cache_seq_next") 6. e4e4730698 ("crypto: skcipher - remove the exporting of skcipher_walk_next") 7. 14b4c48bb1 ("gve: Remove the exporting of gve_probe") 8. 9b79ee9773 ("scsi: libsas: remove the exporting of sas_wait_eh") 9. ... The build time impact is very limited and is almost at the unnoticeable level (< 1 sec).
