Many of the patch splits were artificially created in order to ease
review, for example "signing packets" doesn't do anything without also
"hooking in the tcp stack". Some static functions will trigger warnings
because they're unused until the next patch, not clear what the
preferred solution would be here. I could remove the "static" marker
until the next patch or reverse the order and have the initial "tcp
integration" patches call crypto code that just returns an error and
fills-in a signature of zeros.
Ease of review is important, so although discouraged transient warnings
are acceptable if the code is much easier to read that way. The problem
here was that the build was also broken, but looking at it again I
think you're just missing exports, please make sure to build test with
IPV6 compiled as a module:
ERROR: modpost: "tcp_authopt_hash" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "__tcp_authopt_select_key" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!
The kernel build robot sent me an email regarding IPv6=m last time, I
fixed that issue but introduced another. I check for IPv6=m specifically
but only did "make net/ipv4/ net/ipv6/" and missed the error.
I went through the series and solved checkpatch, kernel-doc and
compilation issues in a more systematic fashion, I will repost later.
