scripts/faddr2line: Skip over mapping symbols in output from readelf
Mapping symbols emitted in the readelf output can confuse the
'faddr2line' symbol size calculation, resulting in the erroneous
rejection of valid offsets. This is especially prevalent when building
an arm64 kernel with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG=y, where most functions are
prefixed with a 32-bit data value in a '$d.n' section. For example:
447538: ffff800080014b80 548 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 do_one_initcall
104: ffff800080014c74 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.73
106: ffff800080014d30 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.75
111: ffff800080014da4 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $d.78
112: ffff800080014da8 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.79
36: ffff800080014de0 200 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 2 run_init_process
Adding a warning to do_one_initcall() results in:
| WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at init/main.c:1236 do_one_initcall+0xf4/0x260
Which 'faddr2line' refuses to accept:
$ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux do_one_initcall+0xf4/0x260
skipping do_one_initcall address at 0xffff800080014c74 due to size mismatch (0x260 != 0x224)
no match for do_one_initcall+0xf4/0x260
Filter out these entries from readelf using a shell reimplementation of
is_mapping_symbol(), so that the size of a symbol is calculated as a
delta to the next symbol present in ksymtab.
