H A D | nsdeps | bbc55bded4aaf47d6f2bd9389fc8d3a3821d18c0 Tue Oct 29 07:38:07 CDT 2019 Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> modpost: dump missing namespaces into a single modules.nsdeps file
The modpost, with the -d option given, generates per-module .ns_deps files.
Kbuild generates per-module .mod files to carry module information. This is convenient because Make handles multiple jobs in parallel when the -j option is given.
On the other hand, the modpost always runs as a single thread. I do not see a strong reason to produce separate .ns_deps files.
This commit changes the modpost to generate just one file, modules.nsdeps, each line of which has the following format:
<module_name>: <list of missing namespaces>
Please note it contains *missing* namespaces instead of required ones. So, modules.nsdeps is empty if the namespace dependency is all good.
This will work more efficiently because spatch will no longer process already imported namespaces. I removed the '(if needed)' from the nsdeps log since spatch is invoked only when needed.
This also solves the stale .ns_deps problem reported by Jessica Yu:
