[$] Enforcement (or not) for module-specific exported symbols
mardi 15 juillet 2025, 15:59 , par LWN.net
Loadable kernel modules require access to kernel data structures and
functions to get their job done; the kernel provides this access by way of exported symbols. Almost since this mechanism was created, there have been debates over which symbols should be exported, and how. The 6.16 kernel gained a new export mechanism that limits access to symbols to specific kernel modules. That code is likely to change soon, but the addition of an enforcement mechanism has since been backed out.
