Subject: [PATCH v3 0/5] module: Strict per-modname namespaces
Date: Fri, 02 May 2025 16:12:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250502141204.500293812@infradead.org> (raw)
Hi!
Implement means for exports to be available to an explicit list of named
modules. By explicitly limiting the usage of certain exports, the abuse
potential/risk is greatly reduced.
Changes since v2:
- switch to "module:" prefix (Masahiro)
- removed some patch noise (Masahiro)
- strstarts() and strlen() usage for prefixes (Masahiro)
- simpler ___EXPORT_SYMBOL() changes (Masahiro)
Not making using of glob_match() / fnmatch(); this would result in more
complicated code for very little gain.
