Later on boot up, the kernel +# will read this list, save the locations and turn them into nops. +# When tracing or profiling is later enabled, these locations will then +# be converted back to pointers to some function. +# +# This is no easy feat. This script is called just after the original +# object is compiled and before it is linked. +# +# The references to the call sites are offsets from the section of text +# that the call site is in. Hence, all functions in a section that +# has a call site to mcount, will have the offset from the beginning of +# the section and not the beginning of the function. +# +# The trick is to find a way to record the beginning of the section. +# The way we do this is to look at the first function in the section +# which will also be the location of that section after final link. +# e.g. +# +# .section ".text.sched" +# .globl my_func +# my_func: +# [...] +# call mcount (offset: 0x5) +# [...] +# ret +# other_func: +# [...] +# call mcount (offset: 0x1b) +# [...] +# +# Both relocation offsets for the mcounts in the above example will be +# offset from .text.sched. If we make another file called tmp.s with: +# +# .section __mcount_loc +# .quad my_func + 0x5 +# .quad my_func + 0x1b +# +# We can then compile this tmp.s into tmp.o, and link it to the original +# object. +# +# But this gets hard if my_func is not globl (a static function). +# In such a case we have: +# +# .section ".text.sched" +# my_func: +# [...] +# call mcount (offset: 0x5) +# [...] +# ret +# .globl my_func +# other_func: +# [...] +# call mcount (offset: 0x1b) +# [...] +# +# If we make the tmp.s the same as above, when we link together with +# the original object, we will end up with two symbols for my_func: +# one local, one global. After final compile, we will end up with +# an undefined reference to my_func. +# +# Since local objects can reference local variables, we need to find +# a way to make tmp.o reference the local objects of the original object +# file after it is linked together. To do this, we convert the my_func +# into a global symbol before linking tmp.o. Then after we link tmp.o +# we will only have a single symbol for my_func that is global. +# We can convert my_func back into a local symbol and we are done. +# +# Here are the steps we take: +# +# 1) Record all the local symbols by using 'nm' +# 2) Use objdump to find all the call site offsets and sections for +# mcount. +# 3) Compile the list into its own object. +# 4) Do we have to deal with local functions?
