Re: [PATCH kbuild RFC] kbuild: fix modpost throwing away module symvers when linking vmlinux.o

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

 



Just to note how this breaks things:

On OpenWRT this may happen
1. make modules is run
   - Module.symvers contains symbols from modules
2. make Image/bzImage is run (as part of another OpenWRT make target)
   - Module.symvers is rewritten to contain only vmlinux.o symbols
3. external kernel modules try to build (wireguard, mac80211)
   - this now fails because external modules may depend on symbols from
     other modules and this information isn't in Module.symvers anymore
