The compiler can fully inline the actual handler function of an interrupt
entry into the .irqentry.text entry point. If such a function contains an
access which has an exception table entry, modpost complains about a
section mismatch:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x447c): Section mismatch in reference ...
The relocation at __ex_table+0x447c references section ".irqentry.text"
which is not in the list of authorized sections.
Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS to cure the issue.

The first error message in device_id_check() is obscure and can be
misleading because the cause of the error is unlikely to be found in
the struct definition in mod_devicetable.h.
This type of error occurs when an array is passed to an incorrect type
of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().
[Example 1]
static const struct acpi_device_id foo_ids[] = {
{ "FOO" },
{ /* sentinel */ },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, foo_ids);
Currently, modpost outputs a meaningless suggestion:
ERROR: modpost: ...: sizeof(struct of_device_id)=200 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_device_table__of__<identifier>=64.
Fix definition of struct of_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
The root cause here is that MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, ...) is used instead
of the correct MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, ...).
This commit provides a more intuitive error message:
ERROR: modpost: ...: type mismatch between foo_ids[] and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, ...)
The second error message, related to a missing terminator, is too
verbose.
[Example 2]
static const struct acpi_device_id foo_ids[] = {
{ "FOO" },
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, foo_ids);
The current error message is overly long, and does not pinpoint the
incorrect array:
...: struct acpi_device_id is 32 bytes. The last of 1 is:
0x46 0x4f 0x4f 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
ERROR: modpost: ...: struct acpi_device_id is not terminated with a NULL entry!
This commit changes it to a more concise error message, sufficient to
identify the incorrect array:
ERROR: modpost: ...: foo_ids[] is not terminated with a NULL entry
Lastly, this commit squashes device_id_check() into do_table() and
changes fatal() into error(), allowing modpost to continue processing
other modules.

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(pnp_card, ...) may have duplicated IDs. For
instance, snd_ad1816a_pnpids[] in sound/isa/ad1816a/ad1816a.c includes
multiple occurrences of the "ADS7180" string within its .devs fields.
Currently, do_pnp_card_entries() handles deduplication on its own, but
this logic should be moved to a common helper function, as drivers in
other subsystems might also have similar duplication issues.
For example, drivers/media/i2c/s5c73m3/s5c73m3.mod.c contains duplicated
MODULE_ALIAS() entries because both s5c73m3-core.c and s5c73m3-spi.c
define the same compatible string.
This commit eliminates redundant MODULE_ALIAS() entries across all
drivers.
[Before]
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/media/i2c/s5c73m3/s5c73m3.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("i2c:S5C73M3");
MODULE_ALIAS("of:N*T*Csamsung,s5c73m3");
MODULE_ALIAS("of:N*T*Csamsung,s5c73m3C*");
MODULE_ALIAS("of:N*T*Csamsung,s5c73m3");
MODULE_ALIAS("of:N*T*Csamsung,s5c73m3C*");

The generic ->do_entry() handler is currently limited to returning
a single alias string.
However, this is not flexible enough for several subsystems, which
currently require their own implementations:
- do_usb_table()
- do_of_table()
- do_pnp_device_entry()
- do_pnp_card_entries()
This commit introduces a helper function so that these special cases can
add multiple MODULE_ALIAS() and then migrate to the generic framework.

This function contains multiple bugs after the following commits:
- ac55182899 ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard")
- 6543becf26 ("mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling")
Commit ac55182899 inserted the following code to do_eisa_entry():
else
strcat(alias, "*");
This is incorrect because 'alias' is uninitialized. If it is not
NULL-terminated, strcat() could cause a buffer overrun.
Even if 'alias' happens to be zero-filled, it would output:
MODULE_ALIAS("*");
This would match anything. As a result, the module could be loaded by
any unrelated uevent from an unrelated subsystem.
Commit ac55182899 introduced another bug.
Prior to that commit, the conditional check was:
if (eisa->sig[0])
This checked if the first character of eisa_device_id::sig was not '\0'.
However, commit ac55182899 changed it as follows:
if (sig[0])
sig[0] is NOT the first character of the eisa_device_id::sig. The
type of 'sig' is 'char (*)[8]', meaning that the type of 'sig[0]' is
'char [8]' instead of 'char'. 'sig[0]' and 'symval' refer to the same
address, which never becomes NULL.
The correct conversion would have been:
if ((*sig)[0])
However, this if-conditional was meaningless because the earlier change
in commit ac551828993e was incorrect.
This commit removes the entire incorrect code, which should never have
been executed.

When building a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit build host, incorrect
input MODULE_ALIAS() entries may be generated.
For example, when compiling a 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m
on a 64-bit build machine, you will get the correct output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*145,*r*a*0,*1,*18,*1C,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*r*a*0,*1,*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, building the same kernel on a 32-bit machine results in
incorrect output:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/mousedev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*110,*130,*r*0,*1,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*2,*k*r*8,*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*14A,*16A,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");

MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*3,*k*110,*130,*r*a*0,*1,*20,*21,*m*l*s*f*w*");
A similar issue occurs with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m. On a 64-bit build
machine, the output is:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*8,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*6,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*120,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*130,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*1,*k*2C0,*r*a*m*l*s*f*w*");
However, on a 32-bit machine, the output is incorrect:
$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/input/joydev.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*0,*20,*m*l*s*f*w*");
MODULE_ALIAS("input:b*v*p*e*-e*3,*k*r*a*2,*22,*m*l*s*f*w*");

When building a 64-bit kernel, BITS_PER_LONG is defined as 64. However,
on a 32-bit build machine, the constant 1L is a signed 32-bit value.
Left-shifting it beyond 32 bits causes wraparound, and shifting by 31
or 63 bits makes it a negative value.
The fix in commit e0e9263271 ("[PATCH] PATCH: 1 line 2.6.18 bugfix:
modpost-64bit-fix.patch") is incorrect; it only addresses cases where
a 64-bit kernel is built on a 64-bit build machine, overlooking cases
on a 32-bit build machine.
Using 1ULL ensures a 64-bit width on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines,
avoiding the wraparound issue.

When CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=m, modpost outputs incorect acpi
MODULE_ALIAS() if the endianness of the target and the build machine

the output is correct:
$ grep 'MODULE_ALIAS("acpi' drivers/ata/ahci_platform.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:APMC0D33:*");
MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:010601:*");
However, when building a little-endian kernel on a big-endian machine

MODULE_ALIAS("acpi*:APMC0D33:*");

The 'cls' and 'cls_msk' fields are 32-bit.
DEF_FIELD() must be used instead of DEF_FIELD_ADDR() to correctly handle
endianness of these 32-bit fields.
The check 'if (cls)' was unnecessary; it never became NULL, as it was
the pointer to 'symval' plus the offset to the 'cls' field.

Various information about modules is compiled into the info sections.
For that a dedicated .mod.c file is generated by modpost for each module
and then linked into the module.
However most of the information in the .mod.c is the same for all
modules, internal and external.
Split the shared information into a dedicated source file that is
compiled once and then linked into all modules.
This avoids frequent rebuilds for all .mod.c files when using
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO because the local version ends up in .mod.c
through UTS_RELEASE and VERMAGIC_STRING.
The modules are still relinked in this case.
The code is also easier to maintain as it's now in a proper source file
instead of an inline string literal.

Commit 9e663f4811 ("slimbus: core: add support to uevent") added the

To support automatic module loading, slimbus drivers still need to
manually add MODULE_ALIAS("slim:<manf_id>:<prod_code>:*"), as seen in
