Subject[Bugme-new] [Bug 8957] New: Exported functions and variables
It seems to me that kernel/module.c allows the whole kernel to use exported symbols during the execution of the init function if they are weak:
/* Ok if weak. */
if (ELF_ST_BIND(sym[i].st_info) == STB_WEAK)
break;
That seems a possible way to produce the scenario of this so-called bug.
