[PATCH v2 3/4] kbuild: re-implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS to make it work in one-pass

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

 



Commit a555bdd0c58c ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some
guarding") re-enabled this feature, but Linus is still unhappy about
the build time.

The reason of the slowness is the recursion - this basically works in
two loops.

In the first loop, Kbuild builds the entire tree based on the temporary
autoksyms.h, which contains macro defines to control whether their
corresponding EXPORT_SYMBOL() is enabled or not, and also gathers all
symbols required by modules. After the tree traverse, Kbuild updates
autoksyms.h and triggers the second loop to rebuild source files whose
EXPORT_SYMBOL() needs flipping.

This commit re-implements CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS to make it work in
one pass. In the new design, unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL() instances are
trimmed by the linker instead of the preprocessor.

After the tree traverse, a linker script snippet <generated/keep-ksyms.h>
is generated. It feeds the list of necessary sections to vmlinus.lds.S
and modules.lds.S. The other sections fall into /DISCARD/.

Changes in v2:
  - Fix build errors
  - Add LC_ALL=C so the script will not be affected by the user's locale
