[PATCH v8 06/29] KVM: Move export symbol check macros to Makefile.kvm

From: Steffen Eiden <seiden@linux.ibm.com>
Date: 2026-09-18 13:33:04
Also in: kvm, kvmarm, linux-s390, lkml
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine (kvm), kernel virtual machine for x86 (kvm/x86), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Paolo Bonzini, Sean Christopherson, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

The EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL/EXPORT_SYMBOL enforcement logic in
arch/x86/kvm/Makefile is useful for any KVM architecture wanting to
restrict the exported symbols. Move the check macros to
virt/kvm/Makefile.kvm so they can be shared.

Arch Makefiles only need to set kvm_exports_allowed to a space-separated
list of symbols that are permitted and then call kvm_check_exports for
each symbol type they want to enforce.

No functional change.
