When told to force load a module, we were removing only the value of
vermagic instead of the complete entry.
Philippe De Swert (philippe.deswert@jollamobile.com) sent a patch that
was additionally mangling also the last two chars of the key
("vermagic="). Instead of creating an invalid entry in .modinfo section
like this, this patch removes the complete entry, key + value, by
zeroing the entire string.
Much thanks to Philippe who found the issue and pointed to the fix.
I hate this kind of READV and WRITEV macros that Gustavo seems to love.
clang-analyzer hates them as well.
I'm not motivated enough to refactor this, but I want a clean clang
report, so just shut it up.
Uses kmod_elf_get_dependency_symbols() that looks into ".symtab" for
UNDEF symbols and matches the name from ".strtab" to "__versions" to
get crc.
Likely the public API should unify the symbol information getters and
list release, they are almost the same.
Similar to module-init-tools load_symbols(), it will try .symtab and
.strtab for symbols starting with __crc_, if they are found their crc
is read from ELF's Elf_Sym::st_value.
If not found, then it will fallback to __ksymtab_strings.
Commit "b20dc17 Remove unneeded reference to last string" reverted the
fix in "47a0ef6 elf: do not output empty strings." and empty strings are
appearing again in kmod-modinfo.
With this commit we do a bit different and instead of keeping the
reference to last string we skip the '\0' inside the loop.
