Recently discovered this entry while checking kallsyms on ARM64: ffff800083e509c0 D _shared_alloc_tag If ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU is not defined(it is only defined for s390 and alpha architectures), there's no need to statically define the percpu variable _shared_alloc_tag. Therefore, we need to implement isolation for this purpose. When building the core kernel code for s390 or alpha architectures, ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU remains undefined (as it is gated by #if defined(MODULE)). However, when building modules for these architectures, the macro is explicitly defined. Therefore, we remove all instances of ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU from the code and introduced CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU to replace the relevant logic. We can now conditionally define the perpcu variable _shared_alloc_tag based on CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU. This allows architectures (such as s390/alpha) that require weak definitions for percpu variables in modules to include the definition, while others can omit it via compile-time exclusion.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
