| # |
| # Perform a name space analysis on the linux kernel. |
| # |
| # Copyright Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>. GPL. |
| # |
| # Invoke by changing directory to the top of the kernel object |
| # tree then namespace.pl, no parameters. |
| # |
| # Tuned for 2.1.x kernels with the new module handling, it will |
| # work with 2.0 kernels as well. |
| # |
| # Last change 2.6.9-rc1, adding support for separate source and object |
| # trees. |
| # |
| # The source must be compiled/assembled first, the object files |
| # are the primary input to this script. Incomplete or missing |
| # objects will result in a flawed analysis. Compile both vmlinux |
| # and modules. |
| # |
| # Even with complete objects, treat the result of the analysis |
| # with caution. Some external references are only used by |
| # certain architectures, others with certain combinations of |
| # configuration parameters. Ideally the source should include |
| # something like |
| # |
| # #ifndef CONFIG_... |
| # static |
| # #endif |
| # symbol_definition; |
| # |
| # so the symbols are defined as static unless a particular |
| # CONFIG_... requires it to be external. |
| # |
| # A symbol that is suffixed with '(export only)' has these properties |
| # |
| # * It is global. |
| # * It is marked EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, either in the same |
| # source file or a different source file. |
| # * Given the current .config, nothing uses the symbol. |
| # |
| # The symbol is a candidate for conversion to static, plus removal of the |
| # export. But be careful that a different .config might use the symbol. |
| # |
| # |
| # Name space analysis and cleanup is an iterative process. You cannot |
| # expect to find all the problems in a single pass. |
| # |
| # * Identify possibly unnecessary global declarations, verify that they |
| # really are unnecessary and change them to static. |
| # * Compile and fix up gcc warnings about static, removing dead symbols |
| # as necessary. |
| # * make clean and rebuild with different configs (especially |
| # CONFIG_MODULES=n) to see which symbols are being defined when the |
| # config does not require them. These symbols bloat the kernel object |
| # for no good reason, which is frustrating for embedded systems. |
| # * Wrap config sensitive symbols in #ifdef CONFIG_foo, as long as the |
| # code does not get too ugly. |
| # * Repeat the name space analysis until you can live with with the |
| # result. |
