Subject: [PATCH] tracing: ring-buffer: allowlist clang-generated symbols
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2026 18:42:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616164211.3733326-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

In randconfig build testing using clang-22, I came across two
sets of extra symbols in the ring buffer code that may get
inserted by the compiler:

Unexpected symbols in kernel/trace/simple_ring_buffer.o:
         U memset

Unexpected symbols in kernel/trace/simple_ring_buffer.o:
                 U llvm_gcda_emit_arcs
                 U llvm_gcda_emit_function
                 U llvm_gcda_end_file
                 U llvm_gcda_start_file
                 U llvm_gcda_summary_info
                 U llvm_gcov_init

Add all of these to the allowlist.
