Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2019 11:32:27 +0100 Message-ID: <20190906103235.197072-4-maennich@google.com> (raw) In-Reply-To: <20190906103235.197072-1-maennich@google.com> The EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL() macros can be used to export a symbol to a specific namespace. There are no _GPL_FUTURE and _UNUSED variants because these are currently unused, and I'm not sure they are necessary. I didn't add EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for ASM exports; this patch sets the namespace of ASM exports to NULL by default. In case of relative references, it will be relocatable to NULL. If there's a need, this should be pretty easy to add. A module that wants to use a symbol exported to a namespace must add a MODULE_IMPORT_NS() statement to their module code; otherwise, modpost will complain when building the module, and the kernel module loader will emit an error and fail when loading the module. MODULE_IMPORT_NS() adds a modinfo tag 'import_ns' to the module. That tag can be observed by the modinfo command, modpost and kernel/module.c at the time of loading the module. The ELF symbols are renamed to include the namespace with an asm label; for example, symbol 'usb_stor_suspend' in namespace USB_STORAGE becomes 'usb_stor_suspend.USB_STORAGE'. This allows modpost to do namespace checking, without having to go through all the effort of parsing ELF and relocation records just to get to the struct kernel_symbols. On x86_64 I saw no difference in binary size (compression), but at runtime this will require a word of memory per export to hold the namespace. An alternative could be to store namespaced symbols in their own section and use a separate 'struct namespaced_kernel_symbol' for that section, at the cost of making the module loader more complex.
