* [PATCH v5 18/18] dyndbg: change __dynamic_func_call_cls* macros into expressions

The Xe driver's XE_IOCTL_DBG macro calls drm_dbg() from inside an if
(expression). This breaks when CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y because
the invoked macro has a do-while-0 wrapper, and is not an expression.
if (cond && (drm_dbg("expr-form"),1)) {
... do some more stuff
}
Fix for this usage by changing __dynamic_func_call_cls{,_no_desc}
macros into expressions, by replacing the do-while-0s with a ({ })
wrapper. In the common usage, the trailing ';' converts the
expression into a statement.
drm_dbg("statement form");
Additionally, change the dynamic_hex_dump() fallback macro (used when
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is disabled) from a do-while-0 statement into a
statement expression returning 0. This ensures that the fallback form
of dynamic_hex_dump() behaves consistently with its enabled form, and
makes it safe for use in conditional expression contexts.

* [PATCH v5 17/18] dyndbg: hoist classmap-filter-by-modname up to ddebug_add_module

The body of ddebug_attach_module_classes() is just a code-block that
finds the contiguous subrange of classmaps matching on modname, and
saves it into the ddebug_table's info record.
Implement this block in a macro to accommodate different component
vectors in the "box" (as named in the for_subvec macro). We will
reuse this macro shortly.
And hoist its invocation out of ddebug_attach_module_classes() up into
ddebug_add_module(). This moves the filtering step up closer to
dynamic_debug_init(), which already segments the builtin pr_debug
descriptors on their mod_name boundaries.

v3: expand block-comment in ddebug_add_module
v2: move RvB after SoB
finish hoist - drop old fn - ddebug_attach_module_classes
the v1 rev left the old ddebug_attach_module_classes in place, but it
is completely redundant now, since it already lost the list-linking
job it was doing.
It was being cut out later in the patchset (in the unsent API
adaptation phase), but for cleaner review, lets excise it now.
OLD all-in-1-series (pre split into reviewable chunks)
v10?- reordered params to match kdoc
v12- refactor/rename: s/dd_mark_vector_subrange/dd_set_module_subrange/
1. Renamed the macro from dd_mark_vector_subrange to
dd_set_module_subrange to better reflect its purpose of narrowing a
vector to a module-specific subrange.
2. Simplified the arguments by removing the redundant _dst, as the _di
pointer already provides access to the target _ddebug_info struct.
3. Refactored for Clarity: Instead of overwriting the struct's start
pointer while the for_subvec loop is using it to iterate, I
introduced a temporary __start variable. This avoids the "subtle"
side effect and makes the logic easier to follow.
4. Updated Documentation: Improved the comment block to explicitly
state that the macro scans for the first match and counts
contiguous elements.

struct _ddebug_info already has most of dyndbg's info for a module;
push debug_table.mod_name down into it, finishing the encapsulation.
This allows refactoring several callchains, passing &_ddebug_info
instead of &ddebug_table, and hoisting the "&dt->info" deref up
instead of repeating it thru the callchans
ddebug_table contains a _ddebug_info member, so code with a ptr to a
ddebug_table still have access to mod_name, just now with "->info."
added in.
In static ddebug_add_module(&di), reinforce the cursor-model by
dropping the modname arg, and setting di->mod_name at each caller.

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
recompose struct _ddebug_info, inserting proper sub-structs.
The struct _ddebug_info has 2 pairs of _vec, num_##_vec fields, for
descs and classes respectively. for_subvec() makes walking these
vectors less cumbersome, now lets move those field pairs into their
own "vec" structs: _ddebug_descs & _ddebug_class_maps, and re-compose
struct _ddebug_info to contain them cleanly. This also lets us get
rid of for_subvec()'s num_##_vec paste-up.
Also recompose struct ddebug_table to contain a _ddebug_info. This
reinforces _ddebug_info's use as a cursor into relevant data for a
builtin module, and access to the full _ddebug state for modules.
NOTES:
Change section names together, for more obvious name pairing.
Invariant: These vectors ref a contiguous subrange of __section memory
in builtin/DATA or in loadable modules via mod->dyndbg_info; with
guaranteed life-time for us.
struct module contains a _ddebug_info field and module/main.c sets it
up, so that gets adjusted rather obviously.

* [PATCH v5 14/18] dyndbg: pin class param storage to u32
From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-07-02 16:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
Currently, `struct ddebug_class_param` uses pointers to `unsigned
long` values which store the state of `bits` and `lvl`, so it changes
sizes depending upon the architecture. Make it always u32 for
consistency.
The bits field references __drm_debug, which was unsigned int, before
commit f158936b60a7 ("drm: POC drm on dyndbg - use in core, 2 helpers, 3 drivers.")
changed it to unsigned long. This patch changes it back.
That enlargement was a thinko; although modules can have up to 63
classes, and *could* have all those classes in a single classmap, the
real reason is to support multiple classmaps (with non-overlapping
class-id ranges).
32 bits is a practical limit for a class-param's usability since all
classes are set together with a single write of a hex value; 16 would
be a realistic limit, drm.debug has ~12 classes.

v5: u32 for all arches
v4: undo change struct ddebug_class_param to _ddebug_class_param
v3:
fix undefd behavior when classmaps is all 64 bits.
change module_param_named( type-arg from ulong to ullong)
change struct ddebug_class_param to _ddebug_class_param
in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_print.{c,h}
api change later
v2:
patch was "make bits & lvl same size"
but that size was unsigned long, only 32 bits on i386 etc
use u64 for all bits, and %llu %llx

dynamic-debug currently has 2 __sections (__dyndbg, __dyndb_classes),
struct _ddebug_info keeps track of them both, with 2 members each:
_vec and _vec#_len.
We need to loop over these sections, with index and record pointer,
making ref to both _vec and _vec_len. This is already fiddly and
error-prone, and will get worse as we add a 3rd section.
Lets instead embed/abstract the fiddly-ness in the `for_subvec()`
macro, and avoid repeating it going forward.
This is a for-loop macro expander, so it syntactically expects to
precede either a single statement or a { block } of them, and the
usual typeof or do-while-0 tricks are unavailable to fix the
multiple-expansion warning.

Classmaps are stored in an elf section/array, but currently are
individually list-linked onto dyndbg's per-module ddebug_table for
operation. This is unnecessary.
Just like dyndbg's descriptors, classmaps are packed in compile order;
so even with many builtin modules employing multiple classmaps, each
modules' maps are packed contiguously, and can be treated as a
array-start-address & array-length.
So this drops the whole list building operation done in
ddebug_attach_module_classes(), and removes the list-head members of
the classmap structs. The "select-by-modname" condition is reused to
find the start,end of the subrange of classmaps belonging to the module.

old_bits arg is currently a pointer to the input bits, but this could
allow inadvertent changes to the input by the fn. Disallow this.
And constify new_bits while here.

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
Refactor the callchain below param_set_dyndbg_classes(1) to allow
mod-name specific settings. Split (1) into upper/lower fns, adding
modname param to lower, and passing NULL in from upper. Below that,
add the same param to ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(), and pass it thru to
_ddebug_queries(), replacing NULL with the param.
This allows the callchain to update the classmap in just one module,
vs just all as currently done. While the sysfs param is unlikely to
ever update just one module, the callchain will be used for modprobe
handling, which should update only that just-probed module.
In ddebug_apply_class_bitmap(), also check for actual changes to the
bits before announcing them, to declutter logs.

* [PATCH v5 09/18] dyndbg: use KBUILD_MODFILE for unique builtin module names
From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-07-02 16:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
Historically dynamic-debug gets its module names from KBUILD_MODNAME.
This works well for loadable modules, as the module loader has always
required them to have unique names, but for builtins it is basically
kbasename(srcfile), which sadly gives us many modules named "main".
IOW, it makes this ambiguous:
bash-5.3# echo module main +m > /proc/dynamic_debug/control
since it would affect all 4 independent modules named main:
bash-5.3# ddgrep =m
init/main.c:1265 [main]initcall_blacklist =m "blacklisting initcall %s\n"
kernel/power/main.c:49 [main]pm_restore_gfp_mask =m "GFP mask restored\n"
kernel/module/main.c:2862 [main]move_module =m "\t0x%lx 0x%.8lx %s\n"
drivers/base/power/main.c:149 [main]device_pm_add =m "Adding info for %s:%s\n"
We can improve this by using KBUILD_MODFILE for dyndbg's modname in
builtins (which is unique), and KBUILD_MODNAME for loadables (which is
already required/guaranteed to be unique by module-loader):
The above control-file entries then become:
init/main.c:1265 [init/main]initcall_blacklist ...
kernel/power/main.c:49 [kernel/power/main]pm_restore_gfp_mask ...
kernel/module/main.c:2862 [kernel/module/main]move_module ...
drivers/base/power/main.c:149 [drivers/base/power/main]device_pm_add ...
While this is a user visible change; [params] becomes [kernel/params]
etc, it is not a behavior change; we now match the query-module
against the subsystem/module name or its kbasename (the
simple-modname), which as before, matches all 4 modules.
This allows queries to be specific when desired: "module init/main",
while preserving the existing meaning of "module main"
The deeper reason for this change is not obvious. If any builtin
"main" module were to add a classmap, it would attach to all "main"
modules. If 2 "main" modules defined separate classmaps, both modules
would inadvertently share both classmaps. Since classmaps map
classnames to 0..62, and independently defined classmaps are most
likely to start at 0 (unless author is planning to share the 0..62
range with other classmaps), we have a setup for later reserved range
conflicts. Having unique names prevents future conflicts.
This solution isn't perfect:
1. it changes displayed [params] to [kernel/params] etc
2. its mostly redundant with "filename */main.*"
3. Ideally, queries like "module power", "module module", "module
base/power" might be better but would break old queries.
Adjust Documentation with "simple modname" and "subsystem modname".

* [PATCH v5 08/18] lib/parser: add match_wildcard_hyphen() for agnostic matching

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
This commit introduces match_wildcard_hyphen() as a variant of the
existing match_wildcard() function. It treats hyphens and underscores
as identical characters during the matching process.
This is necessary for subsystems like dynamic_debug that need to match
module names provided by users (who often use underscores) against
names stored in the kernel (which may use hyphens, especially when
using KBUILD_MODFILE for built-ins).
To avoid code duplication, the core logic is refactored into a private
__match_wildcard() function marked as __always_inline. This allows the
compiler to generate optimized versions for both the strict and agnostic
callsites with zero runtime overhead.

* [PATCH v5 07/18] dyndbg: reduce verbose/debug clutter

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
currently, for verbose=3, these are logged (blank lines for clarity):
dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" mod:*
dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"
dyndbg: op='+'
dyndbg: flags=0x1
dyndbg: *flagsp=0x1 *maskp=0xffffffff
dyndbg: parsed: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
dyndbg: no matches for query
dyndbg: no-match: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs
That is excessive, so this patch:
- shrinks 3 lines of 2nd stanza to single line
- drops 1st 2 lines of 3rd stanza
3rd line is like 1st, with result, not procedure.
2nd line is just status, retold in 4th, with more info.
New output:
dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p"
dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"
dyndbg: op='+' flags=0x1 maskp=0xffffffff
dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs
Also drop several verbose=3 messages in ddebug_add_module. When
modprobing a module, dyndbg currently logs/says "add-module", and then
"skipping" if the module has no prdbgs. Instead just check 1st and
return quietly.
Unmatched query diagnostics are intentionally restricted to verbose
level 3 (v3pr_info_dq) to reduce dmesg output clutter on standard
verbose levels (verbose=1 and verbose=2), aligning with the overall
de-cluttering of dynamic debug logging.

* [PATCH v5 04/18] dyndbg-API: remove DD_CLASS_TYPE_(DISJOINT|LEVEL)_NAMES and code

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
Remove the DD_CLASS_TYPE_*_NAMES classmap types and code.
These 2 classmap types accept class names at the PARAM interface, for
example:
echo +DRM_UT_CORE,-DRM_UT_KMS > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug_names
The code works, but its only used by test-dynamic-debug, and wasn't
asked for by anyone else, so reduce LOC & test-surface; simplify things.
Also rename enum class_map_type to enum ddebug_class_map_type.

v3:
fix name of enum in kdoc
also change name of struct (to future name)
v2:
move RvB after SoB
respect const instr in param_set_dyndbg_module_classes, return -EINVAL on classtype err.

* [PATCH v5 03/18] dyndbg: reword "class unknown," to "class:_UNKNOWN_"

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
When a dyndbg classname is unknown to a kernel module, the callsite is
un-addressable via >control queries, and therefore uncontrollable.
The control-file displays this condition as "class unknown,"
currently. That spelling is sub-optimal/too-generic, so change it to
"class:_UNKNOWN_" to loudly announce the erroneous situation, and to
make it uniquely greppable.
NB: while this might be seen as a user-visible change, this shouldn't
disqualify the change:
a- it reports a classmap coding error condition, which should be
detected in (or before) review.
b- SHOUTING the error makes it more visible, uniquely greppable.
c- the classmap feature is marked BROKEN for its only current user.

In-Reply-To: <20260702-dd-maint-2-v5-0-24f22b052bf2@gmail.com>
ddebug_change() is a big (~100 lines) function with a nested for loop.
The outer loop walks the per-module ddebug_tables list, and does
module stuff: it filters on a query's "module FOO*" and "class BAR",
failures here skip the entire inner loop.
The inner loop (60 lines) scans a module's descriptors. It starts
with a long block of filters on function, line, format, and the
validated "BAR" class (or the legacy/_DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT).
These filters "continue" past pr_debugs that don't match the query
criteria, before it falls through the code below that counts matches,
then adjusts the flags and static-keys. This is unnecessarily hard to
think about.
So move the per-descriptor filter-block into a boolean function:
ddebug_match_desc(desc), and change each "continue" to "return false".
This puts a clear interface in place, so any future changes are either
inside, outside, or across this interface.
also fix checkpatch complaints about spaces and braces.

This series has cleanups and refactors in preparation for an API
change needed to fix a regression in DRM when it uses dyndbg
classmaps. I split these out for easier review, and to stay under
gmail's 500/day message limit.
Whats here:
. factor ddebug_match_desc out from ddebug_change
separate selecting from altering
. add stub macro for DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP
for cleaner patches later
. reword class unknown to class _UNKNOWN_
a more greppable error announcement
. API remove DD_CLASS_TYPE_ DISJOINT LEVEL _NAME
these are unused, just extra untested code.
. drop NUM_TYPE_ARGS - just use ~ARRAY_SIZE
. bump num tokens in a query cmd from 9 to 15
with class keyword, can have 13 words in a query
. reduce verbose debug clutter
7 log-lines to 4, with same info
. lib parser add match_wildcard_hyphen for underscore/hypen equivalence
"module kvm-intel" is same as "module kvm_intel"
. dynamic_debug use KBUILD_MODFILE for unique builtin names
disambiguate init/main from kernel/module/main
. refactor param_set_dyndbg_classes and below
improve selectivity of callchain underneath
. tighten fn sig of ddebug_apply_class_bitmap
make more args const
. replace classmap list with an array slice
section records are directly usable from the array
. macrofy a 2 index for loop pattern - DRY
. pin class param storage to u32
avoid param size ambiguity across arches
this also changes __drm_debug from long unsigned to u32.
. module make proper substructs in _ddebug_info
its just cleaner
. move mod_name down from struct ddebug_table to _ddebug_info
makes mod_name more available where its needed
. hoist classmap filter-by-modname up to ddebug_add_module
closer to where its done for pr-debug descriptors
. change __dynamic_func_call_cls macros into expressions
Xe driver uses it inside an if (cond), do-while-0 cant sit there.
"user visible" changes:
The KBUILD_MODFILE derived name appears in dynamic_debug/control, so
[main] changes to [init/main] etc. The query parser is adjusted so
that "module main" still selects all of the former [main] modules.
It is user visible, but not a behavior change.
If a coder calls __pr_debug_cls(5, "...") but does not register a
classmap for it, that callsite will display in dynamic_debug/control
as "class:_UNKNOWN_ _id:5", not "class unknown, _id:5" as previously.
This is an error case, and has never been seen in the wild.
---
Changes in v5:
moves KBUILD_MODFILE ahead of array-slice, to address sashiko
complaints which were fixed later in V4.
Changes in v4:
Dyndbg previously used KBUILD_MODNAME to provide module-name, this
works well for loadable modules (module loader requires unique module
names), but for builtin modules, is effectively kbasename, and is not
guaranteed unique.
So we get 4 modules named "main": init/main, kernel/power/main,
kernel/base/power/main. This ambiguity is visible in user-space since
the beginning of dyndbg.
Now suppose kernel/{,base}/power/main want to define classmaps to
categorize the various pr-debugs they have. The current code finds a
module's classmaps by strcmp on modname, so init/main will match
against classmaps defined by both kernel/{,base}/power/main.
The current code will also map "main" classes to kernel/*/power/main,
so they will probably work at first, but 2 independent classmaps can
both use class-ids 0-N, but will conflict if they're both used by a
module. Then we have classmap overlaps and unpredictable results.
Changes in v3:
fix some (not all) of sashiko's complaints.
Changes in v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260504-dd-cleanups-2-v1-0-6fdd24040642@gmail.com/
V2 addressed most of sashiko's feedback on V1:

Hi all,
If there are no objections, I will make the changes using the first approach.
Hi David Laight,
You previously expressed a different opinion. Do you have any further comments
on the current proposed approach?

* [PATCH v4 5/5] dyndbg.lds.S: fix lost dyndbg sections in modules

With CONFIG_DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, several build configs had
problems with __dyndbg* sections getting lost in drm drivers. Fix
this by following the model demonstrated in codetag.lds.h.
Introduce include/asm-generic/dyndbg.lds.h, to bundle dynamic-debug's
multiple sections together, into 2 macros:
vmlinux.lds.h DATA_DATA: move the 2 BOUNDED_SECTION_BY(__dyndbg*)
calls into dyndbg.lds.h DYNDBG_SECTIONS(). vmlinux.lds.h now includes
the new file and calls the new macro.
MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS keeps the 2 sections by name, aligns them and sets
the output address to 0 when the sections are empty.
dyndbg.lds.h includes (reuses) bounded-section.lds.h
scripts/module.lds.S: now calls MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS right before the
CODETAG macro (consistent with their placements in vmlinux.lds.h), and
also includes dyndbg.lds.h
This isolates vmlinux.lds.h from further __dyndbg section additions.

v3: move #includes to top, drop extra ALIGN(8) in DYNDBG_SECTIONS, add RvBy
v2: Address linker script review feedback for relocatable modules.
MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS() used the BOUNDED_SECTION_BY() macro, which
proved problematic for kernel modules for two reasons:
1. Unwanted Empty Sections:
BOUNDED_SECTION_BY() automatically generates `__start` and `__stop`
symbols. When applied to `MOD_DYNDBG_SECTIONS()`, the linker assumes
the sections are populated due to the symbol definitions, forcing an
empty `__dyndbg` and `__dyndbg_classes` output section in every
compiled module, even those without dynamic debug configuration.
Since the module loader uses `section_objs()` to locate data via
ELF headers instead of relying on `__start`/`__stop` symbols, these
assignments are completely unnecessary.
2. Non-zero Output Addresses:
During relocatable linking (e.g., `ld.bfd -r`), omitting an explicit
base address causes the section to inherit the current location
counter. This results in non-zero sh_addr values in `.ko` files,
which is confusing, degrades compressibility, and can cause issues
with external tools parsing the ELF.
Fix both issues by dropping `BOUNDED_SECTION_BY()` in favor of a simple
`KEEP(*(...))` constraint and explicitly defining the sections with a `0`
base address: `__dyndbg 0 : ALIGN(8) { ... }`.

* [PATCH v4 4/5] vmlinux.lds.h: remove redundant ALIGN(8) directives

The BOUNDED_SECTION_PRE_LABEL and BOUNDED_SECTION_POST_LABEL macros
were recently updated to inherently enforce an 8-byte alignment. This
makes the explicit '. = ALIGN(8);' statements preceding 'naked' macro
calls in vmlinux.lds.h redundant.
Remove these redundant alignment directives to clean up the file and
clarify that the macros handle their own alignment padding.

* [PATCH v4 3/5] vmlinux.lds.h: Fix ALIGN(8) omission causing NULL ptr on i386
From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-06-30 18:37 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Arnd Bergmann, Jason Baron, Luis Chamberlain, Petr Pavlu,

In-Reply-To: <20260630-fix-align-v4-0-42e6ec883342@gmail.com>
Almost all uses of the BOUNDED_SECTION macros are ALIGN(8), either
explicitly, or by being below an aligned section containing x*8 byte
objects. The noteworthy exception is BOUNDED_SECTION(__dyndbg), which
immediately follows BOUNDED_SECTION(__dyndbg_classes).
On i386, struct _ddebug_classmap is 28 bytes, so without an explicit
ALIGN(8) in the macro, the following __dyndbg section gets misaligned,
causing a NULL ptr deref in dynamic_debug_init().
So fix this with an explicit ALIGN(8) in the existing BOUNDED_SECTION
macros, and introduce _ALIGNED variants to handle the cases with an
explicit . = ALIGN(x)
Also add explicit alignments for: EXCEPTION_TABLE, ORC_UNWIND_TABLE,
TRACEDATA, INIT_SETUP, and NOTES.
update BOUNDED_SECTION uses inside . = ALIGN(x) stanzas to use
_ALIGNED variants, but keep the outer ALIGNs so the symbols between
them are not "re-aligned".
In particular, scripts/sorttable.c does not tolerate sloppy padding.
At the top of ORC_UNWIND_TABLE, add . = ALIGN(4) to match the struct
orc_header __align() call in the code:

v3:
sashiko complained about NOTES and .BTF_ids.
gemini asserts that NOTES are natively 4-byte aligned, add comment repeating it.
.BTF_ids doesnt use BOUNDED_BY, since start/end isnt needed;
sashiko evidently got confused by immediately preceding usage.
v2:
sashiko picked up 2 cases, added to the explicit list above

* [PATCH v4 2/5] vmlinux.lds.h: drop unused HEADERED_SECTION* macros

These macros are unused, no point in carrying them any more.
NB: these macros were just moved to bounded_sections.lds.h, from
vmlinux.lds.h, which is the known entity, and therefore more
meaningful in the 1-line summary, so thats what I used as the topic.

* [PATCH v4 1/5] vmlinux.lds.h: refactor BOUNDED_SECTION_* macros into bounded_sections.lds.h
From: Jim Cromie @ 2026-06-30 18:37 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Arnd Bergmann, Jason Baron, Luis Chamberlain, Petr Pavlu,
Daniel Gomez, Sami Tolvanen, Aaron Tomlin

In-Reply-To: <20260630-fix-align-v4-0-42e6ec883342@gmail.com>
Move BOUNDED_SECTION_* macros to a new helper file:
include/asm-generic/bounded_sections.lds.h and include it back into
vmlinux.lds.h. This allows its reuse later to fix a failure to keep
dyndbg sections in some circumstances.
NOTES:
These macros are only for use in vmlinux.lds.h, where the _start &
_end symbols are needed. Modules keep sections separate in ELF
sections, with their boundaries known, so the _start and _end are not
useful, and may confuse tools not expecting them.
This patch ignores a checkpatch warning, because new file is covered
by "GENERIC INCLUDE/ASM HEADER FILES" in MAINTAINERS
