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