Subject: [PATCH v3 16/24] dyndbg: replace classmap list with an array-slice
Date: Mon, 01 Jun 2026 12:05:02 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260601-dd-maint-2-v3-16-4a15b241bd3c@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260601-dd-maint-2-v3-0-4a15b241bd3c@gmail.com>
Classmaps are stored in an elf section/array, but currently are
individually list-linked onto dyndbg's per-module ddebug_table for
operation. This is unnecessary.
Just like dyndbg's descriptors, classes are packed in compile order;
so even with many builtin modules employing multiple classmaps, each
modules' maps are packed contiguously, and can be treated as a
array-start-address & array-length.
So this drops the whole list building operation done in
ddebug_attach_module_classes(), and removes the list-head members of
the classmap structs. The "select-by-modname" condition is reused to
find the start,end of the subrange of classmaps belonging to the module.
NOTES:
There are multiple modules named "main" but thats an artifact of how
KBUILD_MODNAME gets its value, and none of those repeats are
contiguous. The legacy code segmenting the builtin descriptors
depends upon this, we are "reusing" that dependency.
The "filter-by-modname" on classmaps should really be done in
ddebug_add_module(1); ie closer to dynamic_debug_init(2), which
already splits up pr-debug descriptors into subranges by modname, then
calls (1) on each. (2) knows nothing of classmaps currently, and
doesn't need to.
