Subject: [PATCH 0/8] kbuild: remove CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX and clean-up code
Date: Wed, 9 May 2018 16:23:44 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1525850632-10921-1-git-send-email-yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> (raw)
I got acknowledge to remove CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX entirely.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/5/148)
Several tools can be cleaned-up.
Removing the CONFIG option makes VMLINUX_SYMBOL() no-op,
so this macro can be removed too.
VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR() are widely used,
so it will take some time to kill them entirely.
(I will send other patches later, splitting per-arch)
Masahiro Yamada (8):
modpost: remove symbol prefix support
genksyms: remove symbol prefix support
kallsyms: remove symbol prefix support
depmod.sh: remove symbol prefix support
export.h: remove code for prefixing symbols with underscore
kbuild: remove CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
vmlinux.lds.h: remove no-op macro VMLINUX_SYMBOL()
checkpatch: remove VMLINUX_SYMBOL() check
