[PATCH v3 01/10] objtool: Handle various symbol types of rodata
Posted by Tiezhu Yang 4 days, 8 hours ago
In the relocation section ".rela.rodata" of each .o file compiled with
LoongArch toolchain, there are various symbol types such as STT_NOTYPE,
STT_OBJECT, STT_FUNC in addition to the usual STT_SECTION, it needs to
use reloc symbol offset instead of reloc addend to find the destination
instruction in find_jump_table() and add_jump_table().

This is preparation for later patch on LoongArch, there is no effect for
the other archs with this patch.

Which patch it prepares for? Please merge some patches if it is not
independent. Otherwise I cannot find what problem it solves.
According to the commit message I think it solve some problems independent?

Generally rela relocations use S + A.
