Enterprise Linux (at least) kernels come with ABI whitelist files that list the names of the set of functions to be considered when looking at the ABI exposed by the kernel to its modules. This patch adds a new --linux-kernel-abi-whitelist option to abidiff so that it drops changes that relate to functions that are *NOT* defined in the whitelist. The patch reads the whitelist file and generates one or several instances of function_suppression that are applied when the two binaries are loaded. * include/abg-suppression.h (function_suppression::function_suppression): Make the declaration of the default constructor public. * src/abg-suppression-priv.h (function_suppression::priv::priv): Declare a default constructor. * src/abg-suppression.cc (function_suppression::function_suppression): Define default constructor. * include/abg-tools-utils.h (gen_suppr_spec_from_kernel_abi_whitelist): Declare new function. * src/abg-tools-utils.cc (gen_suppr_spec_from_kernel_abi_whitelist): Define new function. * tools/abidiff.cc (options::kernel_abi_whitelist_paths): (display_usage): Display a help string for the new --linux-kernel-abi-whitelist option. (parse_command_line): Parse the --linux-kernel-abi-whitelist from the command line. (maybe_check_suppression_files): Check the presence of the kernel abi whitelist files. (set_suppressions): Generate suppression specifications from the whitelist files. Signed-off-by: Dodji Seketeli <dodji@redhat.com> |

VISIBILITY |
This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and Instrumentation Library. It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing ABI-relevant artifacts. The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or program. For a given library or program this set of quantities is called an ABI corpus. This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to compare two ABI Corpora (apparently the plural of corpus is copora, heh, that's cool), provide detailed information about their differences, and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions about these differences. You are welcome to contribute to this project after reading the files CONTRIBUTING and COMMIT-LOG-GUIDELINES files in the source tree. Communicating with the maintainers of this project -- including sending patches to be include to the source code -- happens via email at libabigail@sourceware.org.
