Subject: [PATCH 19/29] modpost: show warning if it fails to read symbol dump file
Date: Sun, 17 May 2020 18:48:49 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200517094859.2376211-20-masahiroy@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200517094859.2376211-1-masahiroy@kernel.org>
If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved
symbols, hence module dependency will not be added. Nor CRCs can be added.
Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers,
but it should check files specified by KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS as well.
Print the warnings in modpost. The warning in Makefile is unneeded.
