Subject: [PATCH v5 12/12] retpoline/modpost: Quieten MODVERSION retpoline build
Date: Sat, 6 Jan 2018 11:49:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1515239374-23361-13-git-send-email-dwmw@amazon.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1515239374-23361-1-git-send-email-dwmw@amazon.co.uk>
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
The internal retpoline thunks used by the compiler contain a dot.
They have to be exported, but modversions cannot handle them
it because they don't have a prototype due to the C incompatible
name (and it doesn't support asm("..."))
This leads to lots of warnings from modpost with a retpoline
build with MODVERSIONS enabled. The actual symbols load fine,
they just don't get versioned. That's not a problem here
because we don't expect them to change ever.
Quieten the respective warning messages in modpost for any
symbols containing a dot.
