I noticed that symbols which cause "disagrees about version of symbol" messages have crc == 0.
---------- scripts/mod/modpost.c ---------- /* CRC'd symbol */ if (strncmp(symname, CRC_PFX, strlen(CRC_PFX)) == 0) { crc = (unsigned int) sym->st_value; + if (!crc) + fprintf(stderr, "symbol %s has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=%d\n", + symname, sym->st_shndx); sym_update_crc(symname + strlen(CRC_PFX), mod, crc, export); } ---------- scripts/mod/modpost.c ---------- I got below messages upon build. symbol __crc_sys_close has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_path_is_under has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_task_nice has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vfs_fsync_range has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc___symbol_put has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_iov_shorten has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_inode_add_bytes has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_sock_register has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vm_brk has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_kern_mount_data has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_schedule_timeout has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_generic_getxattr has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_in_group_p has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_finish_open has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_get_unmapped_area has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_generic_write_sync has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_filp_close has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_d_tmpfile has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_iterate_fd has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_register_exec_domain has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_ns_capable has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc___page_file_mapping has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_mnt_set_expiry has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_do_sync_read has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vfs_test_lock has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_perf_event_create_kernel_counter has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_current_fs_time has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_softirq_work_list has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_sys_close has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_path_is_under has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_task_nice has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vfs_fsync_range has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc___symbol_put has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_iov_shorten has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_inode_add_bytes has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_sock_register has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vm_brk has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_kern_mount_data has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_schedule_timeout has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_generic_getxattr has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_in_group_p has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_finish_open has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_get_unmapped_area has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_generic_write_sync has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_filp_close has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_d_tmpfile has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_iterate_fd has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_register_exec_domain has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_ns_capable has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc___page_file_mapping has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_mnt_set_expiry has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_do_sync_read has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_vfs_test_lock has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_perf_event_create_kernel_counter has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_current_fs_time has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 symbol __crc_softirq_work_list has crc=0 sym->st_shndx=0 I continued bisection in this way and found that commit 5c019369 "syscalls.h: use gcc alias instead of assembler aliases for syscalls" started showing below messages upon build.
