The Generic Kernel Image (GKI) project in Android attempts to improve the status-quo by having a unique kernel for all android devices of the same architecture, regardless of the SoC vendor. The key idea is to make all interested parties agree on a common solution, and contribute their code upstream to make it available to use by the wider community. The kernel-to-drivers ABI on Android devices varies significantly from one vendor kernel to another today because of changes to exported symbols, dependencies on vendor symbols, and surely other things. The first step for GKI is to try and put some order into this by agreeing on one version of the ABI that works for everybody. For practical reasons, we need to reduce the ABI surface to a subset of the exported symbols, simply to make the problem realistically solvable, but there is currently no upstream support for this use-case. As such, this series attempts to improve the situation by enabling users to specify a symbol 'whitelist' at compile time. Any symbol specified in this whitelist will be kept exported when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is set, even if it has no in-tree user. The whitelist is defined as a simple text file, listing symbols, one per line. v6: - made permission checks on the whitelist file more robust (Masahiro) - better style/identation in Makefile (Masahiro) v5: - made sure to be POSIX-compliant (+ tested with dash and posh) - added failure path if the whitelist path is incorrect (Matthias, Nicolas) - collected Acked-By (and other) tags from Nicolas and Matthias v4: - removed [[]] bash-specific pattern from the scripts (Nicolas) - use $CONFIG_SHELL consistently in all patches (Masahiro) - added shortlog for initial generation of autoksyms.h (Masahiro) - added comment on how 'eval' expands the whitelist path (Masahiro) v3: - added a cover letter to explain why this is in fact an attempt to help upstream in the long term (Christoph) - made path relative to the kernel source tree (Matthias) - made the Kconfig help text less confusing (Jessica) - added patch 02 and 03 to optimize build time when a whitelist is provided v2: - make sure to quote the whitelist path properly (Nicolas) Quentin Perret (3): kbuild: allow symbol whitelisting with TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS kbuild: split adjust_autoksyms.sh in two parts kbuild: generate autoksyms.h early Makefile | 7 +++-- init/Kconfig | 13 ++++++++++ scripts/adjust_autoksyms.sh | 24 +++-------------- scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh | 52 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) create mode 100755 scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh -- 2.25.1.481.gfbce0eb801-goog
