JIRA: https://redhat.atlassian.net/browse/RHEL-145695 commit 59b5ed409d03bc8b7bb153d78afcd7cea9d7bbfa Author: Hao Ge <gehao@kylinos.cn> Date: Wed Jun 18 09:58:09 2025 +0800 mm/percpu: conditionally define _shared_alloc_tag via CONFIG_ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU 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.
