[PATCH v7 1/7] objtool: Handle various symbol types of rodata
Posted by Tiezhu Yang 12 months 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().

For the most part, an absolute relocation type is used for rodata. In the
case of STT_SECTION, reloc->sym->offset is always zero, and for the other
symbol types, reloc_addend(reloc) is always zero, thus it can use a simple
statement "reloc->sym->offset + reloc_addend(reloc)" to obtain the symbol
offset for various symbol types.

objtool: Handle various symbol types of rodata

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().

For the most part, an absolute relocation type is used for rodata. In the
case of STT_SECTION, reloc->sym->offset is always zero, and for the other
symbol types, reloc_addend(reloc) is always zero, thus it can use a simple
statement "reloc->sym->offset + reloc_addend(reloc)" to obtain the symbol
offset for various symbol types.
