Hi!
Is there are simple way to get a list of the exported symbols
(i.e. with EXPORT_SYMBOL) for a particular kernel arch, preferably
without building a kernel for that arch?
I'd like to find a definitive way to see if a symbol is exported or
not for a particular architechture -- without a full suite of cross
compilers.
One more thing -- consider you have:
static inline void copy_page(void *to, void *from)
{
copy_4K_page(to, from);
}
... and copy_4K_page is exported, but copy_page is not. Is it
possible that gcc would optimize copy_page() away, so that modules
referencing copy_page would end up getting (the exported) copy_4k_page
and would work?
That last doesn't seem likely to me, but I thought I saw it happening
somewhere. I would like to understand this a bit better.
Thanks!
