      CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup. · b92021b0
      Rusty Russell authored
      
      We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
      "_".  But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
      SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
      do so.
      
      Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
      prefix it so something.  So various places define helpers which are
      defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:
      
      1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
      2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
      3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
      4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
      5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
      6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
      7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
         CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
         for pasting.
      
      (arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).
      
      Let's solve this properly:
      1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
      2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
      3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
      4) Make everyone use them.

      Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.h · 786d35d4
      David Howells authored
      
      Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
      ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
      into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
      
      Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
      
      To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
      
       (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
      
           Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
           mod_arch_specific struct.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
      Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
      two arches that do this.
      
      With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
      with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
      
      Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
      unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.
