cn10k_cpt.o, otx2_cptlf.o and otx2_cpt_mbox_common.o are linked into both rvu_cptpf and rvu_cptvf modules: > scripts/Makefile.build:252: ./drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/Makefile: > cn10k_cpt.o is added to multiple modules: rvu_cptpf rvu_cptvf > scripts/Makefile.build:252: ./drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/Makefile: > otx2_cptlf.o is added to multiple modules: rvu_cptpf rvu_cptvf > scripts/Makefile.build:252: ./drivers/crypto/marvell/octeontx2/Makefile: > otx2_cpt_mbox_common.o is added to multiple modules: rvu_cptpf rvu_cptvf Despite they're build under the same Kconfig option (CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_OCTEONTX2_CPT), it's better do link the common code into a standalone module and export the shared functions. Under certain circumstances, this can lead to the same situation as fixed by commit637a642f5c("zstd: Fixing mixed module-builtin objects"). Plus, those three common object files are relatively big to duplicate them several times. Introduce the new module, rvu_cptcommon, to provide the common functions to both modules.

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 Restructured Text 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.
