Subject: [PATCH v10 07/12] static_call: Add EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_FOR_MODULES()
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 00:07:05 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260414-vmscape-bhb-v10-7-efa924abae5f@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260414-vmscape-bhb-v10-0-efa924abae5f@linux.intel.com>
There is EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_TRAMP() that hides the static key from all
modules. But there is no equivalent of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES() to
restrict symbol visibility to only certain modules.
Add EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_FOR_MODULES(name, mods) that wraps both the key and
the trampoline with EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES(), allowing only a limited
set of modules to see and update the static key.
The immediate user is KVM, in the following commit.
checkpatch reported below warnings with this change that I believe don't
apply in this case:
include/linux/static_call.h:219: WARNING: Non-declarative macros with multiple statements should be enclosed in a do - while loop
include/linux/static_call.h:220: WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately follow its function/variable
