Adapt recent kernel changes
2021-08-24 03:41:14 +08:00

870b26fa2d Update several example code for newer kernel
Known issues with current example code:
If you using newer kernel(e.g linux 5.11.x) to compile the example code,
you may meet following error:
1. syscall.c:83:50: error: ‘ksys_close’ undeclared;
2. cryptosk.c:17:24: error: field ‘sg’ has incomplete type
3. cryptosk.c:143:9: error: implicit declaration of function
‘get_random_bytes’
4. error: macro "DECLARE_TASKLET" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2

Solutions/workaround:
1. In syscall.c, replace #include <linux/syscalls.h> with
#include <linux/fdtable.h> and replace  ksys_close with close_fd
if the kernel version >= 5.11. [1][2]
2. Add #include <linux/scatterlist.h> into cryptosk.c
3. Add #include <linux/random.h> into cryptosk.c
4. In bottomhalf.c and example_tasklet.c, replace DECLARE_TASKLET
with DECLARE_TASKLET_OLD and dispose third argument(0L). [3]

d85944d107 Mention pr_info() rather than KERN_INFO
The latter might have been used along with printk() in an earlier
version, but pr_info() is getting used consistently so adjust the
#include comments accordingly.

For the avoidance of doubt, pr_info() actually comes from printk.h,
which gets #include'd by kernel.h.

Improve the descriptions about reference count (#62)
The term "reference count" would be better than "use count."
In addition, the usage of module_refcount(THIS_MODULE) was appended
for the reference counter query.

2d368210ce Introduce \src to generate Linux kernel source hyperlinks
The new command \src was introduced for preliminary hyperlink generation
which points to Linux kernel source code. At present, stable/linux.git
was referred:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git

We might switch to specific LTS kernels once requested.

da3dd34cd2 Revise the path of Linux kernel headers
This patch uses the relative path to Linux kernel headers in source tree
rather than what they are usually inclused in LKM. It would be great to
introduce \href with appropriate hyperlinks to Linux kernel tree.

e551c98dde Clarify kernel header inclusion
Both <linux/module.h> and <linux/kernel.h> are essential headers, and
LKM should include them. Here, we do not use the fully qualified path
specifying the headers.
