It is not a new issue - both PM and init-main have been in [main] for some time. I believe that with cfc1d277891e module: Move all into module/ module's module-name joined them, changing from [module] to [main] We could do > something simple and just normalize it when we initially create the > table, but setting the 'module name' to 'core' or 'builtin' or something > for all these? core and builtin would both lump all those separate modules together, making it less meaningful. having stable names independent of M vs Y config choices is imperative, ISTM. Also, I dont think "only builtins are affected" captures the whole problem. I dont recall amdgpu or other modules changing when built with =y Theres some subtlety in how KBUILD_MODNAME is set, and probably many current users who like its current behavior. A new var ? 1st, I think that anything tristate gets a sensible value, but at least some of the builtin-only "modules" get basenames, by default. arch/x86/events/amd/ibs.c:1398 [ibs]force_ibs_eilvt_setup =_ "No EILVT entry available\n" arch/x86/events/intel/pt.c:797 [pt]pt_topa_dump =_ "# table @%p, off %llx size %zx\n"w=%16llx\n" kvm gets a solid name, because tristate ? arch/x86/kvm/mmu/mmu.c:6661 [kvm]kvm_mmu_invalidate_mmio_sptes =_ "kvm: kvm [%i]: zapping shadow pages for mmio generation wraparound\n" arch/x86/kvm/hyperv.c:1402 [kvm]kvm_hv_set_msr_pw =_ "kvm [%i]: vcpu%i hv crash (0x%llx 0x%llx 0x%llx 0x%llx 0x%llx)\n" kvm-intel and kvm-amd get their names elsewhere. arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:207 [kvm_intel]nested_vmx_abort =_ "kvm_intel: nested vmx abort, indicator %d\n" arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:913 [kvm_intel]nested_vmx_load_msr =_ "kvm_intel: %s cannot read MSR entry (%u, 0x%08llx)\n" arch/x86/kvm/svm/avic.c:860 [kvm_amd]get_pi_vcpu_info =_ "SVM: %s: use GA mode for irq %u\n" arch/x86/kvm/svm/avic.c:889 [kvm_amd]avic_pi_update_irte =_ "SVM: %s: host_irq=%#x, guest_irq=%#x, set=%#x\n" iow, I dont know.. > > Thanks, > > -Jason
