Subject: [PATCH 04/14] objtool/klp: Skip hidden directories when finding objects
Date: Sun,  2 Aug 2026 20:24:26 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6c8eaa9feb17e3811f4ef7733fd7288b7f489183.1785727106.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1785727106.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>

klp-build's find_objects() scans the whole tree for vmlinux.o and .ko
files, pruning only klp-tmp/ and .git/.  Development tools can leave
other dot-directories in the tree.  Kernel objects never live under
hidden directories, so prune them all.
