Subject: [PATCH v3 03/16] linkage: Add DECLARE_ASM_FUNC_SYMBOL
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 12:10:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210914191045.2234020-4-samitolvanen@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210914191045.2234020-1-samitolvanen@google.com>
The kernel has several assembly functions, which are not directly
callable from C but need to be referred to from C code. This change adds
the DECLARE_ASM_FUNC_SYMBOL macro, which allows us to declare these
symbols using an opaque type, which makes misuse harder, and avoids the
need to annotate references to the functions for Clang's Control-Flow
Integrity (CFI).
