    3 #       namespace.pl.  Mon Aug 30 2004
    4 #
    5 #       Perform a name space analysis on the linux kernel.
    6 #
    7 #       Copyright Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>.  GPL.
    8 #
    9 #       Invoke by changing directory to the top of the kernel object
   10 #       tree then namespace.pl, no parameters.
   11 #
   12 #       Tuned for 2.1.x kernels with the new module handling, it will
   13 #       work with 2.0 kernels as well.
   14 #
   15 #       Last change 2.6.9-rc1, adding support for separate source and object
   16 #       trees.
   17 #
   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.
   22 #
   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
   28 #
   29 #       #ifndef CONFIG_...
   30 #       static
   31 #       #endif
   32 #       symbol_definition;
   33 #
   34 #       so the symbols are defined as static unless a particular
   35 #       CONFIG_... requires it to be external.
   36 #
   37 #       A symbol that is suffixed with '(export only)' has these properties
   38 #
   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.
   43 #
   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.
   46 #
   47 #
   48 #       Name space analysis and cleanup is an iterative process.  You cannot
   49 #       expect to find all the problems in a single pass.
   50 #
   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.
