| |
Commit 784d5699eddc5 ("x86: move exports to actual definitions") removed the EXPORT_SYMBOL(__fentry__) and EXPORT_SYMBOL(mcount) from x8664_ksyms_64.c, and added EXPORT_SYMBOL(function_hook) in mcount_64.S instead. The problem is that function_hook isn't a function at all, but a macro that is defined as eithe mcount or __fentry__ depending on the support from gcc. But instead of adding more #ifdefs like x8684_ksyms_64.c had, I suggest having another export that can handle this similar to the way __string() works with converting macros to strings. By having:
EXPORT_MACRO_SYMBOL(function_hook)
Where we have:
#define EXPORT_MACRO_SYMBOL(x) EXPORT_SYMBOL(x)
It will convert the macro into what it is defined as before calling EXPORT_SYMBOL(), and this will just work properly again.
