From 6560dc160f3a96b8f1f43e2c6b51aa6eb9898b90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Frysinger Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2009 23:42:08 +0930 Subject: module: use MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX with module_layout The check_modstruct_version() needs to look up the symbol "module_layout" in the kernel, but it does so literally and not by a C identifier. The trouble is that it does not include a symbol prefix for those ports that need it (like the Blackfin and H8300 port). So make sure we tack on the MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX define to the front of it.

[ Amerigo Wang: "AFAIK, yes." ] However, there's a problem with commit 6d76013381ed28979cd122eb4b249a88b5e384fa in that if you fail to allocate a mod->sect_attrs (in this case it's null because of the duplication), it still gets used without checking in add_notes_attrs() This should fix it [ This patch leaves other problems, particularly the sections directory, but recent parisc toolchains seem to produce these modules and this prevents a crash and is a minimal change -- RR ] Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Tested-by: Helge Deller Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- kernel/module.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'kernel/module.c') diff --git a/kernel/module.c b/kernel/module.c index 07c80e68a6c..eccb561dd8a 100644 --- a/kernel/module.c +++ b/kernel/module.c @@ -2355,7 +2355,8 @@ static noinline struct module *load_module(void __user *umod, if (err < 0) goto unlink; add_sect_attrs(mod, hdr->e_shnum, secstrings, sechdrs); - add_notes_attrs(mod, hdr->e_shnum, secstrings, sechdrs); + if (mod->sect_attrs) + add_notes_attrs(mod, hdr->e_shnum, secstrings, sechdrs); /* Get rid of temporary copy */ vfree(hdr); -- cgit
