Mathieu Desnoyers b2e3e658b3 Linux Kernel Markers: create modpost file
This adds some new magic in the MODPOST phase for CONFIG_MARKERS.  Analogous
to the Module.symvers file, the build will now write a Module.markers file
when CONFIG_MARKERS=y is set.  This file lists the name, defining module, and
format string of each marker, separated by \t characters.  This simple text
file can be used by offline build procedures for instrumentation code,
analogous to how System.map and Module.symvers can be useful to have for
kernels other than the one you are running right now.

The strings are made easy to extract by having the __trace_mark macro define
the name and format together in a single array called __mstrtab_* in the
__markers_strings section.  This is straightforward and reliable as long as
the marker structs are always defined by this macro.  It is an unreasonable
amount of hairy work to extract the string pointers from the __markers section
structs, which entails handling a relocation type for every machine under the
sun.

# ===========================================================================
# Module versions
# ===========================================================================
#
# Stage one of module building created the following:
# a) The individual .o files used for the module
# b) A <module>.o file which is the .o files above linked together
# c) A <module>.mod file in $(MODVERDIR)/, listing the name of the
# the preliminary <module>.o file, plus all .o files
# Stage 2 is handled by this file and does the following
# 1) Find all modules from the files listed in $(MODVERDIR)/
# 2) modpost is then used to
# 3) create one <module>.mod.c file pr. module
# 4) create one Module.symvers file with CRC for all exported symbols
# 4a) [CONFIG_MARKERS] create one Module.markers file listing defined markers
# 5) compile all <module>.mod.c files
# 6) final link of the module to a <module.ko> file
# Step 3 is used to place certain information in the module's ELF
# section, including information such as:
# Version magic (see include/vermagic.h for full details)
# - Kernel release
# - SMP is CONFIG_SMP
# - PREEMPT is CONFIG_PREEMPT
# - GCC Version
# Module info
# - Module version (MODULE_VERSION)
# - Module alias'es (MODULE_ALIAS)
# - Module license (MODULE_LICENSE)
# - See include/linux/module.h for more details
# Step 4 is solely used to allow module versioning in external modules,
# where the CRC of each module is retrieved from the Module.symers file.
# KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN can be set to avoid error out in case of undefined
# symbols in the final module linking stage
# KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL can be set to skip the final link of modules.
# This is solely usefull to speed up test compiles
