From 1bd9a468018dd318283c7c620729ddf1923f2024 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Wed, 17 Jul 2019 15:17:50 +0900 Subject: kbuild: get rid of kernel/ prefix from in-tree modules.{order,builtin} Removing the 'kernel/' prefix will make our life easier because we can simply do 'cat modules.order' to get all built modules with full paths. Currently, we parse the first line of '*.mod' files in $(MODVERDIR). Since we have duplicated functionality here, I plan to remove MODVERDIR entirely. In fact, modules.order is generated also for external modules in a broken format. It adds the 'kernel/' prefix to the absolute path of the module, like this: kernel//path/to/your/external/module/foo.ko This is fine for now since modules.order is not used for external modules. However, I want to sanitize the format everywhere towards the goal of removing MODVERDIR. We cannot change the format of installed module.{order,builtin}. So, 'make modules_install' will add the 'kernel/' prefix while copying them to $(MODLIB)/.
