Subject: [RFC PATCH v6 20/34] dyndbg: RFC handle __dyndbg* sections in module.lds.h
Up until now, loadable modules have tacitly linked the 2 __dyndbg*
sections into the .ko, as observable in log by enabling module.c's
pr_debugs and loading a module.
But now, we need to explicitly compose our named output sections,
placing the header sections in front of their respective __dyndbg*
input sections. We reuse input section names for the output.
This gives us the placement we need for the header record, which we
can see in the "add-module:"s and elements "0 0" below:
"0 0" lines are headers: predicate (function==module && !lineno)
"X debug prints in" are 1 too high, they count headers.
we are adding tables for empty modules (1st 2 below)
[ 7.578873] dyndbg: add-module: ghash_clmulni_intel

[ 8.133794] dyndbg: 3 debug prints in module intel_rapl_msr
This gives us the property we need:
fixed offset from &__dyndbg[N] to &__dyndbg[0]
container_of gets &header
header has ptr to __dyndbg_sites[]
we can (in principle) drop __dyndbg.site ptr
(after we adapt header to keep it)
TODO:
At this point, for loaded modules, ddebug_add_module() sees the header
as 0'th element, as we need in order to drop site (and regain worst
case footprint parity).
It could/should properly init this header to support the _sites[n]
lookup for loaded mods. Or at least handle it explicitly. Or at
least see what proc-show does with it currently.
Note that for builtins, decided by (__start <= dp < __stop), we use
__start___dyndbg_sites[N] directly, and dont need the header.
But maybe we should use it anyway, double-checking/BUGing when wrong.
