Hi! CC'ing Rusty and mailing listsThanks.quoted
Rusty and ohers: it looks like both CONFIG_CRC32 and CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32 can be compiled as module, and they generate modules with the same name, crc32. Could that be fixed?Gah. Looks like it's been that way since at least 2014, too. I think we could rename it to crypto_crc32, but I don't think it's the only one. Marco, I think depmod should probably FAIL if two modules have the same name, which would at least find such problems. (BTW is there a nice way to figure out if a config var is a tristate? Th=
ese
are only problematic if both CONFIG_ are tristate.) Here's a hacky attempt to look for problems: rusty@rusty-Lemur:~/devel/kernel/linux (master)$ KCONFIGS=3D`find * -name=
'Kconfig*'`; for m in `find [b-z]* -name 'Makefile*'`; do sed -n 's,obj-\$= (CONFIG.*+=3D \([a-z0-9_-]\+\.o\)$,'$m' \1,p' <$m | sort -u; done | sort -k= 2 | uniq -D -f 1 | while read m obj; do fgrep -w $obj $m /dev/null; done |= while read LINE; do conf=3D`echo $LINE | sed 's/.*\$(CONFIG_\([A-Z0-9_]*\)= .*/\1/'`; if grep -C2 "^config $conf\$" $KCONFIGS | fgrep -q tristate; then= echo $LINE; fi; done
Here are the results (mildly filtered by me):
[...]
drivers/hwmon/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_SENSORS_VEXPRESS) +=3D vexpress.o drivers/regulator/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_REGULATOR_VEXPRESS) +=3D vexpress=
.o
Indeed causes issues if both are built as modules, only once succeeds. I will post these 2 patches separately soon. -->8

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] hwmon: (vexpress) rename vexpress hwmon implementation
The vexpress hwmon implementation is currently just called vexpress.
This is a problem because it clashes with another module with the same
name in regulators.
This patch renames the vexpress hwmon implementation to vexpress-hwmon
so that there will be no clash in the module namespace.
