This is very slow. In fact, we can first compress the name being looked up and then use it for comparison when traversing 'kallsyms_names'. This patch series optimizes the performance of function kallsyms_lookup_name(), and function klp_find_object_symbol() in the livepatch module. Based on the test results, the performance overhead is reduced to 5%. That is, the performance of these functions is improved by 20 times. To avoid increasing the kernel size in non-debug mode, the optimization is only for the case CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y. Zhen Lei (7): scripts/kallsyms: don't compress symbol type when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y scripts/kallsyms: rename build_initial_tok_table() kallsyms: Adjust the types of some local variables kallsyms: Improve the performance of kallsyms_lookup_name() kallsyms: Add helper kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() livepatch: Use kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() to improve performance livepatch: Improve the search performance of module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() include/linux/kallsyms.h | 8 +++ kernel/kallsyms.c | 135 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- kernel/livepatch/core.c | 25 ++++++-- kernel/module/kallsyms.c | 13 +++- scripts/kallsyms.c | 19 ++++-- 5 files changed, 184 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) -- 2.25.1
