This is currently a warning, but I think modpost should stop building in this case. If the same symbol is exported multiple times and we let it keep going, the sanity check becomes difficult. Only the legitimate case is that an external module overrides the corresponding in-tree module to provide a different implementation with the same interface. Also, there exists an upstream example that exploits this feature. $ make M=tools/testing/nvdimm ... builds tools/testing/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko. This is a mocked module that overrides the symbols from drivers/nvdimm/libnvdimm.ko. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
