Subject: [PATCHv2 00/10] arm64: assembly export cleanup
Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2018 18:08:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181207180823.36612-1-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)
When exporting a C function, we place the EXPORT_SYMBOL() immediately after the
function definition. Historically we couldn't do this with assembly functions,
and hence we collected all of these exports in arm64ksyms.c. Over time, this
has retained redundant includes and exports for items defined in C code.
For a while now it has been possible to export functions directly from assembly
files, which is beneficial for ongoing maintenance.
These patches move the exports from arm64ksyms.c into their relevant assembly
files, and remove the newly redundant arm64ksyms.c. I've pushed the series to
my arm64/export-cleanup branch [1] on kernel.org.
Thanks,
Mark.
Since v1 [2]:
* fold arm64 <asm/export.h> into <asm/assembler.h>
* rebase to for-next/core
