Hi, all If the CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is selected, and kernel module looks like, /* hello.c */ #include <linux/module.h> #include <linux/kernel.h> #include <linux/init.h> #include "foo.h" typedef int (*foo)(int); int test(void) { return 0; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(test); static int __init hello_init(void) { return 0; } static void __exit hello_exit(void) { return; } module_init(hello_init); module_exit(hello_exit); MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
and foo.h is: /* foo.h */ typedef int (*foo)(int); When compiling, we get the following message: /bin/sh: line 1: 100777 Done arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -E -D__GENKSYMS__ -Wp,-MD,/home/shyodx/test/.hello.o.d -nostdinc \ -isystem /opt/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi/../../lib/arm-linux-gnueabi/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.7.1/include \ -I/home/shyodx/kernel/arch/arm/include -Iarch/arm/include/generated -Iinclude -I/home/shyodx/kernel/arch/arm/include/uapi -Iarch/arm/include/generated/uapi \ -I/home/shyodx/kernel/include/uapi -Iinclude/generated/uapi -include /home/shyodx/kernel/include/linux/kconfig.h -D__KERNEL__ -mlittle-endian \ -Iarch/arm/mach-hisi/include -Iarch/arm/hal/include -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common \ -Werror-implicit-function-declaration -Wno-format-security -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks -DSVN_LAST_CHANGED_REV=0000 -Os -Wno-maybe-uninitialized \ -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm -mabi=aapcs-linux -mno-thumb-interwork -funwind-tables -marm -D__LINUX_ARM_ARCH__=7 -march=armv7-a -msoft-float -Uarm \ -Wframe-larger-than=512 -fno-stack-protector -Wno-unused-but-set-variable -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-var-tracking-assignments -g \ -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wno-pointer-sign -fno-strict-overflow -fconserve-stack -DCC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO -DMODULE -D"KBUILD_STR(s)=#s" \ -D"KBUILD_BASENAME=KBUILD_STR(hello)" -D"KBUILD_MODNAME=KBUILD_STR(hello)" /home/shyodx/test/hello.c 100778 Segmentation fault | scripts/genksyms/genksyms -r /dev/null > /home/shyodx/test/.tmp_hello.ver make[2]: *** [/home/shyodx/test/hello.o] Error 139 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/shyodx/test/] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/shyodx/kernel' make: *** [all] Error 2 >From the above error message, it's hard to tell what is wrong in the code. This is caused in add_symbol(), whose first argument is NULL and type is SYM_TYPEDEF, and the next crc32() will trigger segmentation fault. So we check if the first argument is NULL before using it. Then we could get the gcc error message.
