This directory contains helpful tools that may be used to aid in the development of modularized drivers.
USAGE: add_EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL [--no-skip-arch] < kernel_build_error_log
add_EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL [--no-skip-arch] kernel_build_error_log
grep /<module>[.]ko build_error_log | add_EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL [--no-skip-arch]
vi `add_EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL [--no-skip-arch] < kernel_build_error_log`
To acquire the kernel_build_error_log eg:
$ ./build_sm8250.sh -j50 2>&1 | tee kernel_build_error_log
To only create commit related to symbols needed for cam_spec.ko module:
$ grep /cam_spec[.]ko kernel_build_error_log | add_EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
The script will only affect the current directory level and downward, this allows one to segregate the adjusted content. Any symbols that are needed outside the range of that directory will result in errors and the git commit phase will not be performed.
Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for any noted missing symbols, output the list of files modified to stdout (so it can be passed to an editor command line should you need to check or adjust the results). Automatically commit the list of files into git.
Deals as simply as it can to handle __trace_<symbols>, sorting the result.
Keep in mind exports can change, be added or subtracted, and that preliminary work may expose or remove required symbols to resolve during later work. As such this script only adds, so you may need to revert the results and try again to get the most up to date set. By making this part automated it can deal with the tens or thousands of exports that need to be discovered or added. If you need to adjust a subsystem, run this script in the subsystem directory, and it will only adjust from that point downwards leaving other higher up trees alone.
USAGE: add_MODULE_LICENSE < kernel_build_error_log
add_MODULE_LICENSE kernel_build_error_log
Add MODULE_LICENSE to all the files.
Must be performed in the root directory.
USAGE: find_circular [dir]
Call this when depmod breaks down, or when one needs a list of the symbols implicated in the circular dependency.
Search current or dir directory for all kernel modules. Itemize what they export, and what they import. Discover links and report who fulfills them. Report any first order circular relationships and the symbols that got us into the situation.
Standard output is of the form:
module1.ko(symbols) -> module2.ko(symbols) -> module1.ko
Leaves an annotated modules.dep file in the specified directory.
USAGE: device_snapshot [-s <serialno>] [-D] [-f [<input>]] [-F [-o <output> [-d <input>]]]
Collect filtered /dev and /sys details, along with dmesg and probe list.
-o <output> will drop the collection into a set of files, but will not overrite existing content. -F will overwrite.
-D will wait for the display
if <output> is empty ('' or last option), will not collect dmesg or probe list. If no -o option is specified, then <output> will be default of - (stdout) and all pieces will go to the standard output separated by a cut and snip header. If specified, <output> will contain the filtered /dev/ and /sys/ dumps, <output>.probed the subset filter of just the probed drivers, <output>.dmesg the kernel logs and <output>.config the uncompressed /proc/config.gz.
-d <input> will take the dropped collection specified to -o <output> and produce a diff -U1 output compared against the <input>.
-f <input> allows one to utilize the filter to an existing find /dev /sys output from a device. No dmesg will be collected.
-s <serialno> will allow one to specify a device to connect to when multiples are available, otherwise will default to one available or ANDROID_SERIAL environment variable.
In your local build/flash/boot script for tight development cycles, add
SEQ=`for i in out/${DEFAULT_BUILD}.snapshot.[0-9]*; do
echo ${i#out/${DEFAULT_BUILD}.snapshot.}
done |
sed 's/^0*//' |
grep -v 0-9 |
tr -d .[:alpha:] |
sort -nu |
tail -1` &&
NEWSEQ=$((${SEQ:-0}+1)) &&
NEWSEQ=`printf "%03u" ${NEWSEQ}`
if [ -z "${SEQ}" ]; then
private/msm-google/scripts/gki/device_snapshot \
-o out/${DEFAULT_BUILD}.snapshot.${NEWSEQ}
else
SEQ=`printf "%03u" ${SEQ}`
private/msm-google/scripts/gki/device_snapshot \
-o out/${DEFAULT_BUILD}.snapshot.${NEWSEQ} \
-d out/${DEFAULT_BUILD}.snapshot.${SEQ}
fi
USAGE: instrument_module_init [dir|file]
Add debug instrumentation to module_init and probe functions.
