Message-ID: <cover.1320408578.git.rubini@gnudd.com> Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2011 13:23:00 +0100 From: Alessandro Rubini <rubini@...dd.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: siglesia@...n.ch, manohar.vanga@...n.ch Subject: [RGC PATCH 0/2] split file2alias using elf sections When adding a new bus type with autoloading of modules, people should always change the global scripts/mod/file2alias.c source file, whereas most of the new code is just new files and individual Makefile/Kconfig lines. The first patch turns all the "normal" alias generation in a table-driven loop. The second patch moves a few alias types out of the main file2alias.c source, as a demonstration that the thing works. I didn't move all bus/alias types out of the main file, as it's a huge work. But if the approach is going to be accepted I can do that (or happily leave the task to who volunteers). /alessandro Alessandro Rubini (2): modpost: use table-lookup to build module aliases modpost: use config and ELF sections to build file2alias scripts/mod/Makefile | 13 ++- scripts/mod/alias_acpi.c | 14 ++ scripts/mod/alias_bcma.c | 25 ++++ scripts/mod/alias_pci.c | 49 +++++++ scripts/mod/alias_spi.c | 15 +++ scripts/mod/device_switch.h | 47 +++++++ scripts/mod/file2alias.c | 294 ++++++++----------------------------------- scripts/mod/modpost.h | 18 +++ scripts/mod/modpost.lds | 9 ++ 9 files changed, 243 insertions(+), 241 deletions(-) create mode 100644 scripts/mod/alias_acpi.c create mode 100644 scripts/mod/alias_bcma.c create mode 100644 scripts/mod/alias_pci.c create mode 100644 scripts/mod/alias_spi.c create mode 100644 scripts/mod/device_switch.h create mode 100644 scripts/mod/modpost.lds -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
