Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 30f3bb09778de64e ("kallsyms:
Add self-test facility") in linus/master.
I gave this a try on m68k (atari_defconfig + CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y),
but it failed:
start
kallsyms_lookup_name() for kallsyms_test_func_static failed:
addr=0, expect 60ab0
kallsyms_lookup_name() for kallsyms_test_func failed: addr=0, expect 60ac0
kallsyms_lookup_name() for kallsyms_test_func_weak failed: addr=0,
expect 60ac2
kallsyms_lookup_name() for vmalloc failed: addr=0, expect c272a
kallsyms_lookup_name() for vfree failed: addr=0, expect c2142
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() for kallsyms_test_func_static
failed: count=0, addr=0, expect 60ab0
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() for kallsyms_test_func failed:
count=0, addr=0, expect 60ac0
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() for kallsyms_test_func_weak
failed: count=0, addr=0, expect 60ac2
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() for vmalloc failed: count=0,
addr=0, expect c272a
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() for vfree failed: count=0, addr=0,
expect c2142
abort
Given all addresses are zero, it looks like some required functionality
or config option is missing.
$ grep SYM .config
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE=y
# CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE is not set
CONFIG_SYMBOLIC_ERRNAME=y
# CONFIG_STRIP_ASM_SYMS is not set
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST
Do you have a clue?
