[PATCH v2 2/5] module: kallsyms: Determine exact function size

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

 



When a weak type function is overridden, its symbol will be removed
from the symbol table, but its code will not been removed. It will
cause find_kallsyms_symbol() to compute a larger function size than
it actually is, just because symbol of its following weak function is
removed.

To fix this issue, check that given address is within the size of
the function found.
