Hi Xie,

This check shouldn't be in add_versions() (which does something else entirely),
it should probably be put in a separate helper function called from main. But
I'm not a big fan of the extra string manipulation to do something this simple.

I think this check can be vastly simplified, how about something like the
following?

diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c
index 48397fe..bb09fc7 100644
--- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c
+++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c
@@ -2139,6 +2139,9 @@ static void add_header(struct buffer *b, struct module *mod)
 			      "#endif\n");
 	buf_printf(b, "\t.arch = MODULE_ARCH_INIT,\n");
 	buf_printf(b, "};\n");
+	buf_printf(b, "\n");
+	buf_printf(b, "static void __attribute__((section(\".discard\"), used)) __modname_test(void)\n");
+	buf_printf(b, "{ BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(KBUILD_MODNAME) > MODULE_NAME_LEN); }\n");
 }
 
 static void add_intree_flag(struct buffer *b, int is_intree)

This simply checks if KBUILD_MODNAME > MODULE_NAME_LEN and breaks the build if
it does.

This looks better, would you apply your following patch?

Sure, thanks for testing. I'll go ahead and format this into a proper
patch and resend.

Please wait, I just found that this patch makes the built module can't
be inserted by the following error:

# insmod abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabc.ko 
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabc.ko: Invalid parameters

# dmesg
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabc: Unknown symbol __fentry__ (err -22)

Hm, I am unable to reproduce this. It looks like __fentry__ is missing
from your kernel, you may have a mismatch between the kernel config
that you're running and the config you are using to build the module.
In other words, it seems like you might have built the module with
CONFIG_FTRACE but built the kernel without.

Few questions -

What is the output of running `grep __fentry__ /proc/kallsyms`?

Does your module correspond to the running kernel version?

Do you have CONFIG_FTRACE/FUNCTION_TRACER enabled in your running
kernel?

Is that the full dmesg output (are there any other error messages)?

Thanks,

Jessica

Sure it has.

Sure.

Sure.


> Is that the full dmesg output (are there any other error messages)?

Even when I compiled the kernel with your patch, the kernel module load
failed at the boot time with the following error:

[    1.656708] libcrc32c: no symbol version for __fentry__
[    1.656709] libcrc32c: Unknown symbol __fentry__ (err -22)

But my above patch in add_versions() doesn't have such problem, I've no
idea why. Maybe your patch breaks some sections?

And FYI, if I removed the "used" in attribute, this problem goes away, the
compiled module can be inserted without error. expect that there is a
"_modname_test defined but not used" warning:

  CC      /root/kprobe_example_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.mod.o
/root/kprobe_example_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.mod.c:18:38: warning: ‘__modname_test’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
 __attribute__((section(".discard"))) __modname_test(void)


Any idea?

Hm, I am still unable to reproduce this on my system with modversions
enabled and the -rc2 kernel. But judging by the errno (-22) it looks
like this is failing in check_version()/resolve_symbol() for you,
which leads me to think that this is somehow messing with the
__versions table generated by modpost (not sure why).

Does the  ____versions[] array in the generated *.mod.c file for your
test module look different with and without the patch? Also: what
version of gcc and binutils are you using, and what kernel version are
you testing on?

If you could also send me off-list the *.mod.c files generated by
modpost with and without the patch applied, that'd also help.

Thanks,

Jessica

The *.mod.c file are same except the added __modname_test section, the gcc
,binutils and kernel are all from centos 7.2 (3.10.0-327).

Thanks for the additional info. Just FYI, I'm going to be out this
week and part of next week due to travelling, but I'll be able to take
another look at this next Thurs/Fri. If we can't resolve the issue, we
can just work on your original patch.

Thanks!

Jessica
