[v4] annotate entry points with type and size

[PATCH v4 0/8] annotate entry points with type and size

Posted by Jan Beulich 8 months, 4 weeks ago

The model introduced in patch 1 is now arch-agnostic, and all arch-es
are being switched at least partly (to at least give examples of how
things will look like); PPC and RISC-V are still small enough to switch
completely in one go.

1: common: assembly entry point type/size annotations
2: x86: annotate entry points with type and size
3: x86: also mark assembler globals hidden
4: Arm: annotate entry points with type and size
5: RISC-V: annotate entry points with type and size
6: PPC: switch entry point annotations to common model
7: tools/binfile: switch to common annotations model
8: common: honor CONFIG_CC_SPLIT_SECTIONS also for assembly functions

I'm sorry, I notice I screwed up with the numbering of patches 6 and 7.
I hope things are still clear enough.
