Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 4/4] kernel/module: Hide vermagic header file from general use
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2020 16:36:48 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200415133648.1306956-5-leon@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200415133648.1306956-1-leon@kernel.org>
From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@mellanox.com>
VERMAGIC* definitions are not supposed to be used by the drivers,
see this [1] bug report, so simply move this header file to be visible
to kernel/* and scripts files only.
In-tree module build:
➜ kernel git:(vermagic) ✗ make clean
➜ kernel git:(vermagic) ✗ make M=drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5
➜ kernel git:(vermagic) ✗ modinfo drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.ko
filename: /images/leonro/src/kernel/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.ko
<...>
vermagic: 5.6.0+ SMP mod_unload modversions
Out-of-tree module build:
➜ mlx5 make -C /images/leonro/src/kernel clean M=/tmp/mlx5
➜ mlx5 make -C /images/leonro/src/kernel M=/tmp/mlx5
➜ mlx5 modinfo /tmp/mlx5/mlx5_ib.ko
filename: /tmp/mlx5/mlx5_ib.ko
<...>
vermagic: 5.6.0+ SMP mod_unload modversions
