Subject: [PATCH] Handle C symbols with leading underscore (HAVE_ASM_USCORE)
Date: Sat, 10 Nov 2007 20:03:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4736009D.3010502@t-online.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1016 bytes --]

HAVE_ASM_USCORE is checked by configure, but module loader does not work 
in this case.

This patch fixes this by ignoring the difference. It actually works to 
load modules compiled on Linux by a kernel compiled on Cygwin (with 
underscores) and vice versa.

It also prepares the grub_mod_init/finit search for modules converted 
from non-ELF format (which do not support the "function" symbol type).

A bug in symbol table scan is fixed.

2007-11-10  Christian Franke  <franke@computer.org>

	* genkernsyms.sh.in: Handle HAVE_ASM_USCORE case.

	* genmk.rb: Handle HAVE_ASM_USCORE case in strip command.
	Add $EXEEXT to CLEANFILES.

	* kern/dl.c (grub_dl_resolve_symbol): Handle HAVE_ASM_USCORE case,
	ignore leading underscore.
	(grub_dl_register_symbol): Likewise.
	(grub_dl_resolve_symbols): Likewise.
	Add check for grub_mod_init/fini for symbols without type. 
	(grub_dl_resolve_dependencies): Add check for trailing nullbytes
	in symbol table. This fixes an infinite loop if stab is zero filled.
