include/linux/pci.h: In function 'pci_register_driver':
include/linux/pci.h:673: error: 'KBUILD_MODNAME' undeclared (first use in this function)
include/linux/pci.h:673: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
include/linux/pci.h:673: error: for each function it appears in.)
Sam says:
The problem is that u_ether.o is used by two modules so when we build it
KBUILD_MODNAME is not defined because kbuild does not know what value to
use.
And in pci.h we have the following inline:
static inline int __must_check pci_register_driver(struct pci_driver *driver)
{
return __pci_register_driver(driver, THIS_MODULE, KBUILD_MODNAME);
}
And alpha uses dma-mapping.h to nullify a number of functions that seem to
require something from pci.h.
Making it a macro fixes this particular problem. However, the underlying issue
of a file using KBUILD_MODNAME and being shared between multiple modules is
*not* addressed. I guess the answer there is "don't do that".
