Subject: [PATCH v4 18/21] objtool: Allow multiple pv_ops arrays
Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2025 08:08:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251127070844.21919-19-jgross@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251127070844.21919-1-jgross@suse.com>
Having a single large pv_ops array has the main disadvantage of needing
all prototypes of the single array members in one header file. This is
adding up to the need to include lots of otherwise unrelated headers.
In order to allow multiple smaller pv_ops arrays dedicated to one
area of the kernel each, allow multiple arrays in objtool.
For better performance limit the possible names of the arrays to
start with "pv_ops".
