Thank you, Jessica --- The following changes since commit 19c329f6808995b142b3966301f217c831e7cf31: Linux 5.11-rc4 (2021-01-17 16:37:05 -0800) are available in the Git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux.git tags/modules-for-v5.12 for you to fetch changes up to 1e80d9cb579ed7edd121753eeccce82ff82521b4: module: potential uninitialized return in module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() (2021-02-10 16:57:04 +0100) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Modules updates for v5.12 Summary of modules changes for the 5.12 merge window: - Retire EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE(). These export types were introduced between 2006 - 2008. All the of the unused symbols have been long removed and gpl future symbols were converted to gpl quite a long time ago, and I don't believe these export types have been used ever since. So, I think it should be safe to retire those export types now. (Christoph Hellwig) - Refactor and clean up some aged code cruft in the module loader (Christoph Hellwig) - Build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol only when livepatching is enabled, as it is the only caller (Christoph Hellwig) - Unexport find_module() and module_mutex and fix the last module callers to not rely on these anymore. Make module_mutex internal to the module loader. (Christoph Hellwig) - Harden ELF checks on module load and validate ELF structures before checking the module signature (Frank van der Linden) - Fix undefined symbol warning for clang (Fangrui Song) - Fix smatch warning (Dan Carpenter) Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu <j...@kernel.org> ---------------------------------------------------------------- Christoph Hellwig (13): powerpc/powernv: remove get_cxl_module drm: remove drm_fb_helper_modinit module: unexport find_module and module_mutex module: use RCU to synchronize find_module kallsyms: refactor {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol kallsyms: only build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol when required module: mark module_mutex static module: remove each_symbol_in_section module: merge each_symbol_section into find_symbol module: pass struct find_symbol_args to find_symbol module: move struct symsearch to module.c module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL* Dan Carpenter (1): module: potential uninitialized return in module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() Fangrui Song (1): module: Ignore _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ when warning for undefined symbols Frank van der Linden (1): module: harden ELF info handling arch/arm/configs/bcm2835_defconfig | 1 - arch/arm/configs/mxs_defconfig | 1 - arch/mips/configs/nlm_xlp_defconfig | 1 - arch/mips/configs/nlm_xlr_defconfig | 1 - arch/parisc/configs/generic-32bit_defconfig | 1 - arch/parisc/configs/generic-64bit_defconfig | 1 - arch/powerpc/configs/ppc6xx_defconfig | 1 - arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/pci-cxl.c | 22 -- arch/s390/configs/debug_defconfig | 1 - arch/s390/configs/defconfig | 1 - arch/sh/configs/edosk7760_defconfig | 1 - arch/sh/configs/sdk7780_defconfig | 1 - arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig | 1 - arch/x86/configs/x86_64_defconfig | 1 - arch/x86/tools/relocs.c | 4 +- drivers/gpu/drm/drm_crtc_helper_internal.h | 10 - drivers/gpu/drm/drm_fb_helper.c | 21 -- drivers/gpu/drm/drm_kms_helper_common.c | 25 +- include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h | 42 --- include/linux/export.h | 9 - include/linux/kallsyms.h | 17 +- include/linux/module.h | 48 +-- init/Kconfig | 17 - kernel/kallsyms.c | 8 +- kernel/livepatch/core.c | 7 +- kernel/module.c | 481 ++++++++++++++-------------- kernel/module_signature.c | 2 +- kernel/module_signing.c | 2 +- kernel/trace/trace_kprobe.c | 4 +- lib/bug.c | 3 - scripts/checkpatch.pl | 6 +- scripts/mod/modpost.c | 50 +-- scripts/mod/modpost.h | 3 - scripts/module.lds.S | 6 - tools/include/linux/export.h | 3 - 35 files changed, 287 insertions(+), 516 deletions(-)
