+#!/bin/sh
+#
+#	Given a list of objects, strip all static symbols except those
+#	required by insmod.
+#
+#	Copyright Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>.  GPL.
+#	Sat Feb  1 12:52:17 EST 1997
+#	
+#	Mainly intended for reducing the size of modules to save space
+#	on emergency and install disks.  Be aware that removing the
+#	static symbols reduces the amount of diagnostic information
+#	available for oops.  Not recommended for normal module usage.
+#
+#	This code requires the modules use MODULE_PARM and EXPORT_.
+#	Do not strip modules that have not been converted to use
+#	MODULE_PARM or are using the old method of exporting symbols.
+#	In particular do not use on modules prior to 2.1.20 (approx).
+#
+#	The objects are stripped in /tmp, only if the strip works is
+#	the original overwritten.  If the command line to strip the
+#	symbols becomes too long, the strip is done in multiple passes.
+#	Running strip_module twice on the same object is safe (and a
+#	waste of time).
