最近本身编译内核安装内核的时候, 老是遇到 /lib/modules
下空间不够, 致使内核安装有问题. 因此就想裁剪下.
分析的时候发现, 系统原生内核 /lib/modules/
uname -r` 目录驱动大小只有 100M 左右, 可是我本身编译的驱动目录 1.4G 左右.linux
若是咱们内核开启了 CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO 选项, 那么咱们编译的二进制会带上不少调试信息. 内核镜像 Image 都是通过裁剪和优化的. 可是驱动没有. 因此致使单个 KO 的大小就很大.web
所以能够把每一个 KO 都 strip 一会儿.app
make modules_install 安装驱动以后, strip 一会儿.ide
find /lib/modules/XXX -name *.ko | xargs strip -g
内核难道没有提供现成的选项么:svg

The default kernel configuration is configured to support as many hardware as possible. A non-stripped kernel with default configuration resulted in a size of 1897996 kB (including kernel + modules). When stripping many unnecessary drivers and options, it resulted in a size of 892892 kB which is a size reduction of 53% compared to the stock kernel. When installing the kernel modules, append the INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 option. This will strip all debugging symbols and reduced the size by 92% for me (from 892892 kB to 69356 kB). Note this will only affects modules to be installed and not the kernel (vmlinuz) itself. Use the INSTALL_MOD_STRIP option for removing debugging symbols: # make INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 modules_install Similarly, for building the deb packages: # make INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 deb-pkg
若是在 build and install ko 的时候(make modules_install) 的时候加上INSTALL_MOD_STRIP =1的话
则build ko的时候 会加上–strip-debug 这样会让build出的ko size大幅缩小.
具体是在 kernel 根目录下面 Makefile 中有对INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 进行处理this
# # INSTALL_MOD_STRIP, if defined, will cause modules to be # stripped after they are installed. If INSTALL_MOD_STRIP is '1', then # the default option --strip-debug will be used. Otherwise, # INSTALL_MOD_STRIP value will be used as the options to the strip command. ifdef INSTALL_MOD_STRIP ifeq ($(INSTALL_MOD_STRIP),1) mod_strip_cmd = $(STRIP) --strip-debug else mod_strip_cmd = $(STRIP) $(INSTALL_MOD_STRIP) endif # INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 else mod_strip_cmd = true endif # INSTALL_MOD_STRIP export mod_strip_cmd
可见spa
最终会在 scripts/Makefile.modinst中用到mod_strip_cmddebug
# Don't stop modules_install if we can't sign external modules. quiet_cmd_modules_install = INSTALL $@ cmd_modules_install = \ mkdir -p $(2) ; \ cp $@ $(2) ; \ $(mod_strip_cmd) $(2)/$(notdir $@) ; \ $(mod_sign_cmd) $(2)/$(notdir $@) $(patsubst %,|| true,$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)) ; \ $(mod_compress_cmd) $(2)/$(notdir $@) # Modules built outside the kernel source tree go into extra by default INSTALL_MOD_DIR ?= extra ext-mod-dir = $(INSTALL_MOD_DIR)$(subst $(patsubst %/,%,$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)),,$(@D)) modinst_dir = $(if $(KBUILD_EXTMOD),$(ext-mod-dir),kernel/$(@D)) $(modules): $(call cmd,modules_install,$(MODLIB)/$(modinst_dir))
modules_install 中会用驱动拷贝到安装目录, 而后用 mod_strip_cmd 处理驱动.
若是设置了 INSTALL_MOD_STRIP, 就会对驱动作 strip, 不然就什么也不作.
