Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] KVM: Export KVM-internal symbols for sub-modules only
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2025 17:32:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250919003303.1355064-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Use the newfangled EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES() along with some macro
shenanigans to export KVM-internal symbols if and only if KVM has one or
more sub-modules, and only for those sub-modules, e.g. x86's kvm-amd.ko
and/or kvm-intel.ko.

Patch 5 gives KVM x86 the full treatment.  If anyone wants to tackle PPC,
it should be doable to restrict KVM PPC's exports as well.

Based on kvm-x86.  My plan is to take this through the KVM x86 tree as there's
an annoying conflict with an in-flight patch, and except for the vfio-ap
change that's been acked, PPC is the only other architecture that's at all
affected, and KVM PPC is maintained separately.

v2:
 - Omit the x86 patch, for now.
 - Drop "GPL" from KVM's macro to match EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES. [Vlastimil]

v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250729174238.593070-1-seanjc%40google.com
