-Subject: [PATCH] modpost: srcversion sometimes incorrect
-
-"srcversion" field inserted into module modinfo section contains a
-sum of the source files which made it. However, this field can
-be incorrect. Building the same module can end up having inconsistent
-srcversion field eventhough the sources remain the same.
-This can be reproduced by building modules in a deeply nested directory,
-but other factors contribute as well.
-
-The reason for incorrect srcversion is that some source files can be
-simply silently skipped from the checksum calculation due to limited
-buffer space for line parsing.
-
-This patch addresses two issues:
-
-1. Allocates a larger line buffer (32k vs 4k).
-2. Issues a warning if a line length exceeds the line buffer.
