Hi Luis,
As per your suggestion [1], this is an attempt to refactor and split
optional code out of core module support code into separate components.
This version is based on Linus' commit 7993e65fdd0f ("Merge tag
'mtd/fixes-for-5.17-rc5' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mtd/linux").
Hi Christophe,
Hopefully this iteration is all right.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Changes since v6 [2]
- Moved KCOV_INSTRUMENT_module.o out of kernel/Makefile into
kernel/module/Makefile (Christophe Leroy)
- Moved kernel/module/signature.c back into kernel/
(Christophe Leroy)
- Fixed Oops in add_kallsyms() due to an invalid pointer assignment
(Christophe Leroy)
Changes since v5 [3]:
- Updated MAINTAINERS to include the entire kernel/module/ directory
(Christophe Leroy)
- Reintroduce commit a97ac8cb24a3 ("module: fix signature check failures
when using in-kernel decompression") (Michal Suchánek)
- Refactored code to address some (i.e.
--ignore=MULTIPLE_ASSIGNMENTS,ASSIGN_IN_IF was used) style violations
e.g. "Alignment should match open parenthesis", reported by
scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict (Christophe Leroy)
- Used PAGE_ALIGN() and PAGE_ALIGNED() instead (Christophe Leroy)
- Removed sig_enforce from include/linux/module.h as it is only
used in kernel/module/signing.c (Christophe Leroy)
- Added static keyword for anything not used outside a source file
(Christophe Leroy)
- Moved mod_sysfs_teardown() to kernel/module/sysfs.c (Christophe Leroy)
- Removed kdb_modules from kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_private.h
(Christophe Leroy)
Changes since v4 [4]:
- Moved is_livepatch_module() and set_livepatch_module() to
kernel/module/livepatch.c
- Addressed minor compiler warning concerning
kernel/module/internal.h (0-day)
- Resolved style violations reported by scripts/checkpatch.pl
- Dropped patch 5 [5] so external patch [6] can be applied at
a later date post merge into module-next (Christophe Leroy)
Changes since v3 [7]:
- Refactored both is_livepatch_module() and set_livepatch_module(),
respectively, to use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_LIVEPATCH) (Joe Perches)
- Addressed various compiler warnings e.g., no previous prototype (0-day)
Changes since v2 [8]:
- Moved module decompress support to a separate file
- Made check_modinfo_livepatch() generic (Petr Mladek)
- Removed filename from each newly created file (Luis Chamberlain)
- Addressed some (i.e. --ignore=ASSIGN_IN_IF,AVOID_BUG was used)
minor scripts/checkpatch.pl concerns e.g., use strscpy over
strlcpy and missing a blank line after declarations (Allen)
Changes since v1 [9]:
- Moved module version support code into a new file
