There are multiple symbols in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_filter_functions
are renamed in /proc/kallsyms due to cross file inlining. One example is for
static function __access_remote_vm in mm/memory.c.
In a non-LTO kernel, we have the following call stack:
ptrace_access_vm (global, kernel/ptrace.c)
access_remote_vm (global, mm/memory.c)
__access_remote_vm (static, mm/memory.c)
With LTO kernel, it is possible that access_remote_vm() is inlined by
ptrace_access_vm(). So we end up with the following call stack:
ptrace_access_vm (global, kernel/ptrace.c)
__access_remote_vm (static, mm/memory.c)
The compiler renames __access_remote_vm to __access_remote_vm.llvm.<hash>
to prevent potential name collision.
The kernel bpf_kprobe_multi_link_attach() and ftrace_lookup_symbols() try
to find addresses based on /proc/kallsyms, hence the current test failed
with LTO kenrel.
This patch removed __access_remote_vm and other similar functions from
kprobe_multi_attach by checking if the symbol like __access_remote_vm
does not exist in kallsyms with LTO kernel. The test succeeded after this change:
#117/1 kprobe_multi_bench_attach/kernel:OK

curious how many symbols like that are there?
The number of entries in /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions: 50654
After existing filtering ('arch_cpu_idle') etc: 50513 (filtering 141)
After above ksym_get_addr(name) check: 49437 (further filtering 1076)
