From cb9b55d21fe06ca5e4ba244bb5aac0afeb745c8e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthias Maennich Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2019 11:32:28 +0100 Subject: modpost: add support for symbol namespaces 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.

E.g. if the linked module my-module.ko would depend on the symbol myfunc.MY_NS in the namespace MY_NS, the my-module.ns_deps file created by modpost would contain the entry MY_NS to express the namespace dependency of my-module imposed by using the symbol myfunc. These files can subsequently be used by static analysis tools (like coccinelle scripts) to address issues with missing namespace imports. A later patch of this series will introduce such a script 'nsdeps' and a corresponding make target to automatically add missing MODULE_IMPORT_NS() definitions to the module's sources. For that it uses the information provided in the generated .ns_deps files.
