一般我們編寫C程序時,要調用某個文件中的函數,需要在本文件中包含聲明有被調用函數的頭文件,然後編譯連接後,方能找到調用函數。對於模塊依賴的情況,不能簡單的使用上面的方法,內核提供了一個機制,就是EXPORT_SYMBOL標簽內定義的函數或者符號對全部內核代碼公開,不用修改內核代碼就可以在您的內核模塊中直接調用,即使用EXPORT_SYMBOL可以將一個函數以符號的方式導出給其他模塊使用。您還可以手工修改內核源代碼來導出另外的函數,用於重新編譯並加載新內核後的測試。
[cpp]
include/module.h:
struct kernel_symbol
{
unsigned long value;
const char *name;
};
/* For every exported symbol, place a struct in the __ksymtab section */
#define __EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, sec) \
__CRC_SYMBOL(sym, sec) \
static const char __kstrtab_##sym[] \
__attribute__((section("__ksymtab_strings"))) \
= MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX #sym; \
static const struct kernel_symbol __ksymtab_##sym \
__attribute_used__ \
__attribute__((section("__ksymtab" sec), unused)) \
= { (unsigned long)&sym, __kstrtab_##sym }
#define EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym) \
__EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, "")
#define EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(sym) \
__EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, "_gpl")
#endif
include/module.h:
struct kernel_symbol
{
unsigned long value;
const char *name;
};
/* For every exported symbol, place a struct in the __ksymtab section */
#define __EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, sec) \
__CRC_SYMBOL(sym, sec) \
static const char __kstrtab_##sym[] \
__attribute__((section("__ksymtab_strings"))) \
= MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX #sym; \
static const struct kernel_symbol __ksymtab_##sym \
__attribute_used__ \
__attribute__((section("__ksymtab" sec), unused)) \
= { (unsigned long)&sym, __kstrtab_##sym }
#define EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym) \
__EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, "")
#define EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(sym) \
__EXPORT_SYMBOL(sym, "_gpl")
#endif
下面是這種方法是演示:
第一個模塊文件如下:
[lingyun@localhost export_symbol]$ ls
mod1 mod2
[lingyun@localhost export_symbol]$ cd mod1/
[lingyun@localhost mod1]$ ls
Makefile mod_a.c
[lingyun@localhost mod1]$ vim mod_a.c

其中EXPORT_SYMBOL(func1)導出func1函數符號,保存函數地址和名稱.

在這裡調用了第一個模塊中的func1函數。
對應的Makefile文件:

[cpp]

mod2-y:=mod_b.o
KERNELDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build

[lingyun@localhost mod2]$
[lingyun@localhost mod2]$ sudo insmod mod2.ko

[lingyun@localhost mod2]$
解決上面的問題如下:
解決辦法是把mod_a的Module.symvers放到mod_b的當前路徑,從而編譯mod_b,符號信息會自動連接進去.
或者在mod_b的makefile中使用KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS指定mod_a的Module.symvers, 如:
KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS=/mod_a/Module.symvers
編譯mod_b時,搜索Module.symvers的路徑是:
1, kernel source path, e.g. /usr/src/kernels/linux-2.6.28.10
2, makefile中M=所指定的路徑, 它等效於變量KBUILD_EXTMOD的值
3, 變量KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS的值
此時Makefile文件如下:
[cpp]
obj-m:=mod2.o
mod2-y:=mod_b.o
<SPAN style="COLOR: #ff0000">KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS=~/fulinux/export_symbol/mod1/Module.symvers</SPAN>
KERNELDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD:=$(shell pwd)
modules:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) modules
modules_install:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) modules_install
clean:
rm -rf *.o *~core .depend .*.cmd *.ko *.ko.* *.mod.c .tmp_versions *odule* $(TARGET)
obj-m:=mod2.o
mod2-y:=mod_b.o
KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS=~/fulinux/export_symbol/mod1/Module.symvers
KERNELDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD:=$(shell pwd)
modules:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) modules
modules_install:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) modules_install
clean:
rm -rf *.o *~core .depend .*.cmd *.ko *.ko.* *.mod.c .tmp_versions *odule* $(TARGET)
在編譯加載如下:
[lingyun@localhost mod2]$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64/build M=/usr/local/src/lingyun/fulinux/export_symbol/mod2 modules

[lingyun@localhost mod2]$ sudo insmod mod2.ko
[lingyun@localhost mod2]$
[lingyun@localhost mod2]$ dmesg | grep "In Func:"

可見模塊二調用模塊一的func1成功!!!
