My main motivation of this commit is to clean up scripts/Kbuild.include and scripts/Makefile.build. Currently, CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS works with a tricky gimmick; possibly exported symbols are detected by letting $(CPP) replace EXPORT_SYMBOL* with a special string '=== __KSYM_*===', which is post-processed by sed, and passed to fixdep. The extra preprocessing is costly, and hacking cmd_and_fixdep is ugly. I came up with a new way to find exported symbols; insert a dummy symbol __ksym_marker_* to each potentially exported symbol. Those dummy symbols are picked up by $(NM), post-processed by sed, then appended to .*.cmd files. I collected the post-process part to a new shell script scripts/gen_ksymdeps.sh for readability. The dummy symbols are put into the .discard.* section so that the linker script rips them off the final vmlinux or modules. A nice side-effect is building with CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS will be much faster. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
