The library uses list functions to create lists internally and
provides to the clients immutable lists and only functions to
traverse them.

It may be useful to create own lists in the kmod utilities, so
export functions for lists creation as well (as it's done for
arrays). The following functions affected (needed for the
following depmod modifications):

kmod_list_append()
kmod_list_remove()
kmod_list_remove_data()

The patch also adds kmod_list_data() accessor to keep the
struct kmod_list opaque.

I don't see a use for these functions outside of the tools we provide.
We don't need to export them (to external users) in order to use for
our tools.  You can just make the tools include libkmod-internal.h and
use that.

In fact since you didn't update the .sym file what will happen is that
external users will see a function in the header but won't be able to
use it since it will not be part of the .so.

Hmm, log macros redefined in this case:

  CC       tools/depmod.o
In file included from tools/kmod.h:42:0,
                 from tools/depmod.c:42:
tools/log.h:31:0: warning: "ERR" redefined
 #define ERR(...) log_printf(LOG_ERR, __VA_ARGS__)
 
In file included from tools/depmod.c:40:0:
./libkmod/libkmod-internal.h:29:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
 #  define ERR(ctx, arg...) kmod_log_cond(ctx, LOG_ERR, ## arg)


Would include libkmod-internal.h, then undef then, then include kmod.h be
acceptable?

This is the approach taken by testsuite. So, yes, it's fine for now.

Since we always include with order system headers, lib headers, local
headers, we could even make the undef on tools/log.h, so inside the
tools we use our local logging macros.

V3->V2:

- depmod.c: undefine ERR and DBG macros, included by libkmod-internal.h

V1->V2:

- use libkmod-internal.h and access list value directly;
- initially create reverse array with 3 elements;
- use memcpy() instead of strcpy() in depmod_report_one_cycle();
- replace "because" with "since" in comment about single branch.
