Hi Andreas, I'm trying to take a more detailed look at your patches. I have a couple more comments about part 1. "depmod: separate symbol lookup and dependency calculation" In load_dep_syms(), why is strtbl_add() not checked using NOFAIL? "depmod: move tables from struct module into separate struct" in fetch_tables(): + tables->pci_table = NULL; ... + tables->of_table = NULL; now tables is a separate struct, all these assignments could be replaced with a single memset(tables, 0x00, sizeof(struct module_tables)).
