Subject: [PATCH v3 3/8] objtool/klp: Use sym->demangled_name for symbol_name hash
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 16:54:31 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260226005436.379303-4-song@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260226005436.379303-1-song@kernel.org>
For klp-build with LTO, it is necessary to correlate demangled symbols,
e.g., correlate foo.llvm.<num 1> and foo.llvm.<num 2>. However, these two
symbols do not have the same str_hash(name). To be able to correlate the
two symbols, calculate hash based on demanged_name, so that these two
symbols have the same hash.
No functional changes intended.
