[PATCH 3/6] modpost: add support for checking symbol namespaces.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Emits a warning whenever a module refers to an exported symbol without
explicitly importing the namespace that it is defined in.

Example:

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