[PATCH] modpost: remove unused Elf_Sword macro

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

 



Commit 9ad21c3f3ecf ("kbuild: try harder to find symbol names in
modpost") added Elf_Sword (in a wrong way), but did not use it at all.

BTW, the current code looks weird.

The fix for the 32-bit part would be:

    Elf64_Sword    -->    Elf32_Sword

(weirdness in the prefix, Elf32_ vs Elf64_)

The fix for the 64-bit part would be:

    Elf64_Sxword   -->    Elf64_Sword

(the size is different between Sword and Sxword)

Note:

    Elf32_Sword   ==  Elf64_Sword   ==  int32_t
    Elf32_Sxword  ==  Elf64_Sxword  ==  int64_t

Anyway, let's drop unused code instead of fixing it.
