kallsyms: Fix kallsyms_selftest failure
Kernel test robot reported a kallsyms_test failure when clang lto is
enabled (thin or full) and CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST is also enabled.
I can reproduce in my local environment with the following error message
with thin lto:
[ 1.877897] kallsyms_selftest: Test for 1750th symbol failed: (tsc_cs_mark_unstable) addr=ffffffff81038090
[ 1.877901] kallsyms_selftest: abort
It appears that commit 8cc32a9bbf29 ("kallsyms: strip LTO-only suffixes
from promoted global functions") caused the failure. Commit 8cc32a9bbf29
changed cleanup_symbol_name() based on ".llvm." instead of '.' where
".llvm." is appended to a before-lto-optimization local symbol name.
We need to propagate such knowledge in kallsyms_selftest.c as well.
Further more, compare_symbol_name() in kallsyms.c needs change as well.
In scripts/kallsyms.c, kallsyms_names and kallsyms_seqs_of_names are used
to record symbol names themselves and index to symbol names respectively.
For example:
kallsyms_names:
...
__amd_smn_rw._entry <== seq 1000
__amd_smn_rw._entry.5 <== seq 1001
__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash> <== seq 1002
...
kallsyms_seqs_of_names are sorted based on cleanup_symbol_name() through, so
the order in kallsyms_seqs_of_names actually has
index 1000: seq 1002 <== __amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash> (actual symbol comparison using '__amd_smn_rw')
index 1001: seq 1000 <== __amd_smn_rw._entry
index 1002: seq 1001 <== __amd_smn_rw._entry.5
Let us say at a particular point, at index 1000, symbol '__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash>'
is comparing to '__amd_smn_rw._entry' where '__amd_smn_rw._entry' is the one to
search e.g., with function kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol(). The current implementation
will find out '__amd_smn_rw._entry' is less than '__amd_smn_rw.llvm.<hash>' and
then continue to search e.g., index 999 and never found a match although the actual
index 1001 is a match.
To fix this issue, let us do cleanup_symbol_name() first and then do comparison.
In the above case, comparing '__amd_smn_rw' vs '__amd_smn_rw._entry' and
'__amd_smn_rw._entry' being greater than '__amd_smn_rw', the next comparison will
be > index 1000 and eventually index 1001 will be hit an a match is found.
For any symbols not having '.llvm.' substr, there is no functionality change
for compare_symbol_name().
