Subject: [PATCH v3 51/64] objtool/klp: Add --debug-checksum=<funcs> to show per-instruction checksums
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2025 16:55:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <545d32e05f6c2634a6fc854ca6246d602f09768a.1750980517.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1750980516.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>
Add a --debug-checksum=<funcs> option to the check subcommand to print
the calculated checksum of each instruction in the given functions.
This is useful for determining where two versions of a function begin to
diverge.
