Changes since v1: - move struct symsearch to module.c - rework drm to not call find_module at all - llow RCU-sched locking for find_module - keep find_module as a public API instead of module_loaded - update a few comments and commit logs Diffstat: arch/arm/configs/bcm2835_defconfig | 1 arch/arm/configs/mxs_defconfig | 1 arch/mips/configs/nlm_xlp_defconfig | 1 arch/mips/configs/nlm_xlr_defconfig | 1 arch/parisc/configs/generic-32bit_defconfig | 1 arch/parisc/configs/generic-64bit_defconfig | 1 arch/powerpc/configs/ppc6xx_defconfig | 1 arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/pci-cxl.c | 22 - arch/s390/configs/debug_defconfig | 1 arch/s390/configs/defconfig | 1 arch/sh/configs/edosk7760_defconfig | 1 arch/sh/configs/sdk7780_defconfig | 1 arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig | 1 arch/x86/configs/x86_64_defconfig | 1 arch/x86/tools/relocs.c | 4 drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc_helper_internal.h | 10 drivers/gpu/drm/drm_fb_helper.c | 21 - drivers/gpu/drm/drm_kms_helper_common.c | 25 +- include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 42 --- include/linux/export.h | 9 include/linux/kallsyms.h | 17 - include/linux/module.h | 48 ---- init/Kconfig | 17 - kernel/kallsyms.c | 8 kernel/livepatch/core.c | 11 kernel/module.c | 310 +++++++++------------------- kernel/trace/trace_kprobe.c | 4 lib/bug.c | 3 scripts/checkpatch.pl | 6 scripts/mod/modpost.c | 50 ---- scripts/mod/modpost.h | 3 scripts/module.lds.S | 6 tools/include/linux/export.h | 3 33 files changed, 142 insertions(+), 490 deletions(-)
