Why? The "ifndef" solution won't achieve the main goal of this patch - completely disallow usage of vermagic.h. Every kernel developer knows that headers outside of include/ folder are not meant to be used. Once the vermagic.h inside kernel/ folder no one will even try to include it. But with new define, all reviewers will need to be aware that they don't suppose to see it in "regular" patches. So, instead of making everything clear by being explicit, we will rely on developers + review + checkpatch and implicit logic. > > > #error can break the build if the header is included in a wrong way. > > For example, include/acpi/platform/aclinux.h > > > > I prefer something like this if a big hammer is needed here. If it is the only way to progress, I will change the series to use this variant, however I don't like it both technically and aesthetically by seeing machinery file with extremely narrow scope inside general include header. > > diff --git a/include/linux/vermagic.h b/include/linux/vermagic.h > index 9aced11e9000..d69fa4661715 100644 > --- a/include/linux/vermagic.h > +++ b/include/linux/vermagic.h > @@ -1,4 +1,9 @@ > /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */ > + > +#ifndef INCLUDE_VERMAGIC > +#error "This header can be included from kernel/module.c or *.mod.c" > +#endif > + > #include <generated/utsrelease.h> > > /* Simply sanity version stamp for modules. */ > diff --git a/kernel/module.c b/kernel/module.c > index 646f1e2330d2..8833e848b73c 100644 > --- a/kernel/module.c > +++ b/kernel/module.c > @@ -4,6 +4,9 @@ > Copyright (C) 2001 Rusty Russell, 2002, 2010 Rusty Russell IBM. > > */ > + > +#define INCLUDE_VERMAGIC > + > #include <linux/export.h> > #include <linux/extable.h> > #include <linux/moduleloader.h> > diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c > index 5c3c50c5ec52..7f7d4ee7b652 100644 > --- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c > +++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c > @@ -2251,6 +2251,7 @@ static void add_header(struct buffer *b, struct > module *mod) > * Include build-salt.h after module.h in order to > * inherit the definitions. > */ > + buf_printf(b, "#define INCLUDE_VERMAGIC\n"); > buf_printf(b, "#include <linux/build-salt.h>\n"); > buf_printf(b, "#include <linux/vermagic.h>\n"); > buf_printf(b, "#include <linux/compiler.h>\n"); > > > > > -- > Best Regards > Masahiro Yamada
