I discovered this while working on oprofile for Alpha. I thought
I'd avoid a whole series of nested ifdefs by marking some symbols
weak, and so let them go undefined and resolve to null. Except
that we don't handle that in the new module loader.
Fixed thus.
I also correct a misconception in simplify_symbol. It is pointless
to lookup an undefined symbol in the module in which it is undefined.
Pull from

That part looks OK. The second loop was only there so we placed
common symbols first: now we don't do that, your cleanup is a good
idea. I'll extract and test that part.

<sigh>. I don't think so.
PPC64 (not in tree yet):
+ /* REL24 references to (external) .function won't
+ resolve; deal with that below */
+ if (!sym->st_value
+ && ELF64_R_TYPE(rela[i].r_info) != R_PPC_REL24) {
+ printk("%s: Unknown symbol %s (index %u)\n",
+ me->name, strtab + sym->st_name,
+ sym->st_shndx);
+ return -ENOENT;
+ }
That's *why* find_symbol_internal() is not static, and why we don't
fail in simplify_symbol() 8(
Hope that clarifies,
Rusty.

I don't understand this. For a weak symbol, st_shndx won't be
SHN_UNDEF. And you don't want to set its value to 0, anyway. I think
you want:
default:
if (ELF_ST_BIND(sym[i].st_info) == STB_WEAK) {
unsigned long val = resolve_symbol(...);
if (val)
sym[i].st_value = val;
} else
...
Or am I missing something?

After that's reverted, here's my implementation. Richard?

I didn't know about undefined weak symbols. I was thinking:
int nosupport_function(void)
{
return -ENOSYS;
}
extern int support_function(void)
__attribute__((alias("nosupport_function"), weak));
....
int init(void)
{
/* Or you could simply call it... */
if (support_function == nosupport_function)
...
Of course, you can use symbol_get and symbol_put, too, but they don't
work if !CONFIG_MODULES: I chose to implement that case as simply a
reference, so you'll get a link failure: see linux/module.h.
