[RFC PATCH 03/28] x86/tools: Use mmap() to simplify relocs host tool
Posted by Ard Biesheuvel 2 months, 3 weeks ago
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

Instead of relying on fseek() and fread() to traverse the vmlinux file
when processing the ELF relocations, mmap() the whole thing and use
memcpy() or direct references where appropriate:
- the executable and section headers are byte swabbed before use if the
  host is big endian, so there, the copy is retained;
- the strtab and extended symtab are not byte swabbed so there, the
  copies are replaced with direct references into the mmap()'ed region.

This substantially simplifies the code, and makes it much easier to
refer to other file contents directly. This will be used by a subsequent
patch to handle GOTPCREL relocations.
