namespace.pl is intended to help locate symbols which are defined but are not used externally. The goal is to avoid bloat of the namespace in the resulting kernel image. The script relies on object data, and only finds unused symbols for the configuration used to generate that object data. This results in a lot of false positive warnings such as symbols only used by a single architecture, or symbols which are used externally only under certain configurations. Running namespace.pl using allyesconfig, allmodconfig, and x86_64_defconfig yields the following results: * allmodconfig * 11122 unique symbol names with no external reference * 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined * 214 symbols it can't resolve * allyesconfig * 10997 unique symbol names with no external reference * 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined * 214 symbols it can't resolve * x86_64_defconfig * 5757 unique symbol names with no external reference * 528 symbols listed as multiply defined * 154 symbols it can't resolve The script also has no way to easily limit the scope of the checks to a given subset of the kernel, such as only checking for symbols defined within a module or subsystem. Discussion on public mailing lists seems to indicate that many view the tool output as suspect or not very useful (see discussions at [1] and [2] for further context). As described by Masahiro Yamada at [2], namespace.pl provides 3 types of checks: listing multiply defined symbols, resolving external symbols, and warnings about symbols with no reference. The first category of issues is easily caught by the linker as any set of multiply defined symbols should fail to link. The second category of issues is also caught by linking, as undefined symbols would cause issues. Even with modules, these types of issues where a module relies on an external symbol are caught by modpost. The remaining category of issues reported is the list of symbols with no external reference, and is the primary motivation of this script. However, it ought to be clear from the above examples that the output is difficult to sort through. Even allyesconfig has ~10000 entries. The current submit-checklist indicates that patches ought to go through namespacecheck and fix any new issues arising. But that itself presents problems. As described at [1], many cases of reports are due to configuration where a function is used externally by some configuration settings. Prominent maintainers appear to dislike changes modify code such that symbols become static based on CONFIG_* flags ([3], and [4]) One possible solution is to adjust the advice and indicate that we only care about the output of namespacecheck on allyesconfig or allmodconfig builds... However, given the discussion at [2], I suspect that few people are actively using this tool. It doesn't have a maintainer in the MAINTAINERS flie, and it produces so many warnings for unused symbols that it is difficult to use effectively. Thus, I propose we simply remove it.

| 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. | ||
