kbuild: check static EXPORT_SYMBOL* by script instead of modpost
The 'static' specifier and EXPORT_SYMBOL() are an odd combination. Commit 15bfc2348d54 ("modpost: check for static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions") tried to detect it, but this check has false negatives. Here is the sample code. Makefile: obj-y += foo1.o foo2.o foo1.c: #include <linux/export.h> static void foo(void) {} EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); foo2.c: void foo(void) {} foo1.c exports the static symbol 'foo', but modpost cannot catch it because it is fooled by foo2.c, which has a global symbol with the same name. s->is_static is cleared if a global symbol with the same name is found somewhere, but EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the global symbol do not necessarily belong to the same compilation unit. This check should be done per compilation unit, but I do not know how to do it in modpost. modpost runs against vmlinux.o or modules, which merges multiple objects, then forgets their origin. modpost cannot parse individual objects because they may not be ELF but LLVM IR when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y. Add a simple bash script to parse the output from ${NM}. This works for CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y because llvm-nm can dump symbols of LLVM IR files. Revert 15bfc2348d54.
