From 3a48a91901c516a46a3406ea576798538a8d94d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Sat, 18 May 2019 01:07:15 +0900 Subject: kbuild: check uniqueness of module names In the recent build test of linux-next, Stephen saw a build error caused by a broken .tmp_versions/*.mod file: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991 drivers/net/phy/asix.ko and drivers/net/usb/asix.ko have the same basename, and there is a race in generating .tmp_versions/asix.mod Kbuild has not checked this before, and it suddenly shows up with obscure error messages when this kind of race occurs. Non-unique module names cause various sort of problems, but it is not trivial to catch them by eyes. Hence, this script. It checks not only real modules, but also built-in modules (i.e. controlled by tristate CONFIG option, but currently compiled with =y). Non-unique names for built-in modules also cause problems because /sys/modules/ would fall over. For the latest kernel, I tested "make allmodconfig all" (or more quickly "make allyesconfig modules"), and it detected the following: warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/regulator/88pm800.ko drivers/mfd/88pm800.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/adv7511/adv7511.ko drivers/media/i2c/adv7511.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/net/phy/asix.ko drivers/net/usb/asix.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: fs/coda/coda.ko drivers/media/platform/coda/coda.ko warning: same basename if the following are built as modules: drivers/net/phy/realtek.ko drivers/net/dsa/realtek.ko Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: Stephen Rothwell Reviewed-by: Lucas De Marchi --- scripts/modules-check.sh | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) create mode 100755 scripts/modules-check.sh (limited to 'scripts') diff --git a/scripts/modules-check.sh b/scripts/modules-check.sh new file mode 100755 index 000000000000..2f659530e1ec --- /dev/null +++ b/scripts/modules-check.sh @@ -0,0 +1,16 @@ +#!/bin/sh +# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +set -e + +# Check uniqueness of module names +check_same_name_modules() +{ + for m in $(sed 's:.*/::' modules.order modules.builtin | sort | uniq -d) + do + echo "warning: same basename if the following are built as modules:" >&2 + sed "/\/$m/!d;s:^kernel/: :" modules.order modules.builtin >&2 + done +} + +check_same_name_modules -- cgit
