From 91e37a793b5a9436a2d12b2f0a8f52db3a133e1d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Fri, 9 May 2008 16:25:28 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] module: don't ignore vermagic string if module doesn't have modversions Linus found a logic bug: we ignore the version number in a module's vermagic string if we have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS set, but modversions also lets through a module with no __versions section for modprobe --force (with tainting, but still). We should only ignore the start of the vermagic string if the module actually *has* crcs to check. Rather than (say) having an entertaining hissy fit and creating a config option to work around the buggy code.
