[PATCH v5 09/33] objtool: check: Support data in text section

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Arm64 assembly code can mix code and data in text sections through the use
of SYM_DATA_*() macros. Skip the content of these symbols when decoding
instructions of text sections.
